What is the meaning of mutable data type?
#1
Hello everyone, I have one simple question which I can not figure out by myself. Would you please share your opinion and help me walking through this?
The question is: what is the meaning of making the difference between mutable and immutable data type in python? Could anyone please tell me what kind of benefits the mutable data type could offer comparing to the immutable data type, maybe give me an example?
Thanks.
