How is Equality Testing Done in Python?
There’s multiple ways of checking if two things are equal in Python. This relates heavy to the idea of Stack vs Heap.
If we’re referring to whether the items have the same address in memory (by reference), then we’d use list1 is list2. Otherwise, if we wanted to perform deep checking (i.e. check by value that there’s identical things at those addresses), then we’d use the list1 == list2.
