Question 119

After list = [] executes in a scope, what does the name list resolve to in that scope?

The built-in type, because built-ins cannot be rebound
Both objects at once, chosen by call context
The newly bound empty list objectCorrect answer
No object, because the assignment is ignored

Explanation

The assignment places a user binding named list in the current scope, so normal lookup finds that empty list object before the built-in type. Built-in names are ordinary names that can be shadowed; they do not automatically take precedence.
