[Tutor] Inner Class access to outer class attributes?

[stv]

Hmmm, so every Sublocation object has a copy of the grouplocation
data? What happens if I come around & change something:

group.grouplocation = differentGroupLocationID

Would I need to (forgive me here if I get some terms wrong) use a
property (or a setter) & then loop over all the affected sublocations
every time grouplocation is re-set? A-la de-normalized relational
database

Is there a better way to skin this cat? Or am I stuck with a) the
non-inner class design & it's ugly indexes

for sub in group.sublocations:
if sub[1] == 'foo':
 print group.group_location, sub[0]

or b) data duplication & possible un-synching.

I'll take a).
