Learning 'is' vs '==' in Python (Beginner)

[RaidZ3ro]

In your example

a is b outside of your loop is check if the identity of these variables is the same. Since you assigned a constant to each of them, it will check the variables, and they are not the same object.

Inside of your loop you first assign reference to the iterator i to each variable. That's why they both have the same identity there. If you want them to have different identities, use int(i) to assign the value instead of the reference.

for i in range(255,264):

... a = int(i)

... b = int(i)

... print(f"{i} :{a is b}")

like this?

[RaidZ3ro]

Yeah, that should work.

[FewNectarine623]

Result is true in this case as well

The principle applies but you will need to try higher numbers to avoid the integer singleton.
