Yes, I did indeed mean "dir_list", not "root_dir". Sorry for the confusion. One point: there is no "copied list". "del dir_list" merely deletes the binding between the name "dir_list" and the list object returned by "os.walk"; the list object itself is unaltered but can no longer be referenced by the name dir_list. "del dir_list[:]" mutates the list object pointed to by dir_list by deleting the references to all of its member elements, turning it into an empty list; the binding of the list object to the name dir_list remains. |
