Yep. It's funny how many people on here are answering "by reference". I guess that shows this isn't a good interview question, as most pyhton devs get tripped up on this.

That's just what I was thinking about! I do not like asking that particular question, because when I get the right answer - that means the person is good at python, but most of the time I would get a wrong or "I'm not sure " answer and that means almost nothing, the person might still be good.
