[Numpy-discussion] copy object with multiple subfields, including ndarrays

[Timothy Hochberg]

It's alwys helpful if you can include a self contained example so it's easy
to figure out exactly what you are getting at. I say that because I'm not
entirely sure of the context here -- it appears that this is not numpy
related issue at all, but rather a general python question. If so, I think
what you are looking for is copy.deepcopy. As it name implies it does a deep
copy of an object as opposed to a shallow copy, which is what
copy.copydoes. If that doesn't do what you want or I misunderstood
your question,
please supply some more detail.
