How do 'is statement' work?

Question

a=[1,2,3]
b=[1,2,3]
Print(a is b)
Why it false??

Answer 1

is’ operator – Evaluates to true if the variables on either side of the operator point to the same object and false otherwise.

Here is an example
a = [1,2,3]
b = a
print(a is b)

#both variables point to the same object.
#You example above does not point to the same object Hasan Zakaria Tahhan

I search and find more information,

a=[1,2,3]
b=a
b[2]=5
Print(a) ==> [1,2,5]
If we need to copy list from variable to another
We can use copy method
b=a.copy()
b[2]=5
Print(a) ==> [1,2,3]

Answer 3

It Outputs true

Answer 8

Is statement simply check the memory location.
That means if a and b are similar the (is) statement will print false
But if a and b are from same memory location then (is) statement will print true.
