RE: [pygame] Newb question: copies vs references

["Michael Robin" <vimakefile@yahoo.com>]

import copy

y = copy.copy(y)
 for a "shallow copy" (one-level)
 or
y = copy.deepcopy(y),
 if you want to recursively copy all elements.

Subject: [pygame] Newb question: copies vs references


Alright.. here's a newb question but I can't seem to get a handle on it.

If I create an object, how can I create a copy of it instead of a reference?

x = y = Obect()

I want an exact copy and avoid the processing already performed on the
instance.
