Python variables are stored internally in a dictionary. del removes the name/value pair from the dictionary. If there are no more references to the object then the garbage collector will eventually remove it from memory. But you shouldn't need to worry too much about that. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
