Surely this is different from C/C++/Java, but it's
IMO all but tricky or underneath.

It seems to be giving you anxiety.
Have you considered not coding on python?

The whole point of Goedelisation was to add to name/value references into
number theory. Thus Goedel was able to add back pointers contrary to the
set hierarchy of the

in coding Python yesterday, i was quite stung by the fact that lists
appened to another list goes by as some so-called reference. e.g.
t=range(5)
n=range(3)
n[0]='m'
t.append(n)
n[0]='h'
t.append(n)
print t
in the following code, after some 1 hour, finally i found the solution
of h[:]. (and
