I think the term 'mutable float' is causing a lot of confusion. My
solution I wouldn't call a mutable float, but a float container that
tries to act like a float in a context where this is required.
Another solution would have been to use automatically dereferencing
pointers but that is something Python does not support. That also would
be very close to C++'s ref (&) parameters.
