This is getting confusing with two times Denis!

I think the above line is a mistake. If Denis(spir) had missed
this out his code would work as he describes, but with it he
reassigns 'a' to a new list and, as you say breaks the connection.
If you forget about that line and keep a pointing at the original
[1,[1,2]] list then the following code makes sense.
a[0] = 0
b
[0, [1, 2]] # this is where I get lost.
a[1] = [0,0]
b
[0, [0, 0]]
My python gets a different result:
So does mine, and I suspect so does denis' (spir).
I think he made a mistake with the second assignment to a.
