I once dated a girl who looked exactly like Scarlett Johannsen only 
completely different.

Pascal let's you pass arrays around either by value (which copies them, 
and may be expensive) or by reference (which doesn't), neither of which 
is what Python (or Java, Ruby, etc.) do. Passing pointers by value is not 
the same as Python object semantics.
