copyassignment python code example

Example: python deepcopy

>>> import copy
>>> nums = [1, 2, 3]
>>> data = {'a': 10, 'b': nums}
>>> data
{'a': 10, 'b': [1, 2, 3]}
>>> data_copy = copy.copy(data)
>>> data_deep = copy.deepcopy(data)
>>> data_copy
{'a': 10, 'b': [1, 2, 3]}
>>> data_deep
{'a': 10, 'b': [1, 2, 3]}
>>> data_copy['a'] += 2
>>> nums[1:1] = [254]
>>> data
{'a': 10, 'b': [1, 254, 2, 3]}
>>> data_copy
{'a': 12, 'b': [1, 254, 2, 3]}
>>> data_deep
{'a': 10, 'b': [1, 2, 3]}
