Nope.  All f's represent the same variable, but it points
to different objects at different places in your program.

Don't have time for a detailed explanation, but I suggest
you spend a little time reading up on how names, objects,
and assignments really work in Python.  Start here:

    http://effbot.org/guides/python-objects.htm

and then read

    http://www.python.org/doc/current/ref/objects.html
    http://www.python.org/doc/current/ref/execframes.html
    http://www.python.org/doc/current/ref/assignment.html
