What other languages use the same data model as Python?

Indeed it does (emphasis added):

"In call-by-reference evaluation (also referred to as 
pass-by-reference), a function receives an *implicit* reference to a 
variable used as argument"

In C the the reference is explicit, which the article states in the next 
paragraph:

"Even among languages that don't exactly support call-by-reference, 
many, including C and ML, support explicit references (objects that 
refer to other objects), such as pointers"

PS
My thanks to those who kept explaining in various ways about the 
difference between language supported features and programmer constructs 
-- I hadn't realized before this thread that call-by-reference was not a 
language feature of C, but rather a programmer-implemented feature using 
the C operators.
