"a zlize". :-) Thank you, but I know this! What the advantage and different 
between:

>>> a = [1,2,3]
>>> a
[1, 2, 3]
>>> id(a)
135729324
>>> b = a
>>> b 
[1, 2, 3]
>>> id(b)
135729324

...and:

>>> a[:] = [1,2,3]
>>> a
[1, 2, 3]
>>> id(a)
135729324
>>> b[:] = a
>>> b
[1, 2, 3]
>>> id(b)
135729324

?

If you are angry with someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes... then
you'll be a mile away from them, and you'll have their shoes.
