Python scope and parameter passing method
Hy


I'm a portuguese student and I am comparing Python to Objective C. Can
some one help me in this?


I would like to ask you about Python:

- the parameter-passing methods (call-by name/value/reference);
- dynamic memory control (garbage collection?, allocation for activation
records);
- the scope of a name (lexical/dynamic);
- innermost or outermost evaluation;
- a small example program that explores the language possibilities.


I appreciate your help!

What your asking is more than a five minute explanation. And looks like a
home work assignment.

Check out the python docs, search for these topics with dejanews and check
out the FAQ at python.org

Don't forget books like "Learning Python" and others from O'REILLY.

Good luck.
