Python deep copy without import code example

Example: python deep copy

# explaining why we need deepcopy
x = [0,1]
y = x
x.append(2)
print(x)
print(y)
# result: [0, 1, 2]
# result: [0, 1, 2]

import copy

some_list = [[0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1], [2, 2, 2]]
other_list = copy.copy(some_list)
some_list.append([3, 3, 3])
print(some_list)
print(other_list)
# result: [0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1], [2, 2, 2], [3, 3, 3]]
# result: [0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1], [2, 2, 2]]

del some_list[2]
some_list[1][0] = 'One'
print(some_list)
print(other_list)
# result: [0, 0, 0], ['One', 1, 1], [2, 2, 2]]
# result: [0, 0, 0], ['One', 1, 1], [2, 2, 2]]

#this problem doesn't happen with copy.deepcopy()
