Hello

The array object on assignment does not  create a new object instead it
creates a reference to the assigned object  ( As expected it should create
a new object). Following code would be enough to prove it

*import array*

*foo = array.array("c", "hello")*
bar = foo

bar[0]  = "\x00"

print foo[0] gives "\x00" output while it should be hello
