:synopsis: Shallow and deep copy operations.

6

6

7

This module provides generic (shallow and deep) copying operations.

7

Assignment statements in Python do not copy objects, they create bindings

8

between a target and an object. For collections that are mutable or contain

9

mutable items, a copy is sometimes needed so one can change one copy without

10

changing the other. This module provides generic shallow and deep copy

11

operations (explained below).
