That seems to be the case :)

I never really meant to say that I think that Python does not have
variables. If anything, I meant that Bruno's explanation that they behave
fundamentally different from C variables (and that therefore it may be
confusing to call them both "variables") helped me to understand better
some of the differences. For me, that was mainly regarding the concepts of
immutability -- which is something that in this form doesn't exist in C.
(It can of course be implemented in C -- after all, I think original Python
is implemented in C.)
