''' Purpose: consider parameter passing nuance in Python ''' import tale city1 = 'London' city2 = 'Paris' # attempt to switch value from city1 to city2, value from city2 to city1 tale.f( city1, city2 ) # this will NOT work # city1 will still hold 'London' NOT 'Paris' # city2 will still hold 'Paris' NOT 'London' print( city1, city2 ) # so we print 'London Paris'
