I have one function that finds some values. Then I want that function to find new values based on the values it found first. However, by just looping, it starts on an eternal job.
As illustrated in: >>> list = [1,2,3] >>> list2 = list >>> list2 [1, 2, 3] >>> for i in list: ... print i ... list2.append(4) ... 1 2 3 4 4 4 and it will forever continue with 4's. Why would list be expanded with the values of list2? How can I copy the result from one list, and do things with the list without getting it to expand? -- This email has been scanned for viruses & spam by Decna as - www.decna.no Denne e-posten er sjekket for virus & spam av Decna as - www.decna.no _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
