  • == compares the values of two objects.
  • is checks if two variables point to the same object in memory.

Example:

Copy Code 


a = [1, 2]
b = [1, 2]
c = a

print(a == b)  # True (values are equal)
print(a is b)  # False (different objects in memory)
print(a is c)  # True (c points to the same list as a)
