id() function in Python

In Python, the id() function is a built-in function that returns the unique identifier of an object. The identifier is an integer, which represents the memory address of the object. The id() function is commonly used to check if two variables or objects refer to the same memory location.

Syntax: id(object)

Return: a unique integer for a given object

Example:

Python3




x = 42
y = x
z = 42
 
print(id(x)) 
print(id(y))  # (same as x)
print(id(z))  # (same as x and y)
 
















Output :


10731304
10731304
10731304


As we can see the function accepts a single parameter and is used to return the identity of an object. This identity has to be unique and constant for this object during its lifetime. Two objects with non-overlapping lifetimes may have the same id() value. If we relate this to C, then they are actually the memory address, here in Python it is the unique id. This function is generally used internally in Python. 


Python id() function Examples


Python id() for Inbuilt DataTypes


In this example, we are printing the id of multiple datatypes like strings and lists.






Python3

















































# This program shows various identities


str1 = "geek"


print(id(str1))


 


str2 = "geek"


print(id(str2))


 


# This will return True


print(id(str1) == id(str2))


 


# Use in Lists


list1 = ["aakash", "priya", "abdul"]


print(id(list1[0]))


print(id(list1[2]))


 


# This returns false


print(id(list1[0])==id(list1[2]))






































Output :


140252505691448
140252505691448
True
140252505691840
140252505739928
False


Python id() for custom object


In this example, we are creating the Python class and we are creating two Python class objects and checking their ids.




Python3

















































class MyClass:


    pass


 


# Create two instances of MyClass


obj1 = MyClass()


obj2 = MyClass()


 


# Print the id of each object


print(id(obj1))


print(id(obj2))






































Output :


139783388205328
139783388205392


Python id() with Sets


In this example, we are using the id function on sets in Python.




Python3

















































set1 = 1, 2, 3


set2 = 3, 2, 1


set3 = 1, 2, 3


 


print(id(set1))  # Output: 


print(id(set2))  # Output: 


print(id(set3))  # Output: 






































Output :


139755710961408
139755710961184
139755709277664


Python id() with Tuples


In this example, we are using the id function on tuples in Python.




Python3

















































tuple1 = (1, 2, 3)


tuple2 = (3, 2, 1)


tuple3 = (1, 2, 3)


 


print(id(tuple1))  # Output: 


print(id(tuple2))  # Output: 


print(id(tuple3))  # Output: 






































Output :


140102982048128
140102982084288
140102982048128

Add an element in Array  to make the bitwise XOR as K




























   Given an array arr[]  containing N positive integers, the task is to add an integer such that the bitwise Xor of the new array becomes K.  Examples:    Input: arr[] = 1, 4, 5, 6, K = 4 Output: 2 Explanation: Bit-wise XOR of the array is 6.  And bit-wise XOR of 6 and 2 is 4.  Input: arr[] = 2, 7, 9, 1, K = 5 Output:  8        Approach: The solution to the problem is based on the following idea of bitwise Xor:   If for two numbers X  and Y , the bitwise Xor of X and Y is Z  then the bitwise Xor of X and Z is Y.   Follow the steps to solve the problem:   Let the bitwise XOR of the array elements be X .   Say the required value to be added is Y  such that X Xor Y = K .  From the above observation, it is clear that the value to be added (Y) is the same as X Xor K .   Below is the implementation of the above approach:   C++                                 // C++ code to implement the above approach     #include  using  namespace  std;     // Function to find the required value  int  find_...

Mahotas – Template Matching




























   In this article we will see how we can do template matching in mahotas. Template is basically a part or structure of image. In this tutorial we will use “lena” image, below is the command to load it.    mahotas.demos.load('lena')  Below is the lena image             In order to do this we will use mahotas.template_match method Syntax :  mahotas.template_match(img, template) Argument :  It takes image object and template as argument Return :  It returns image object      Note :  Input image should be filtered or should be loaded as grey In order to filter the image we will take the image object which is numpy.ndarray and filter it with the help of indexing, below is the command to do this    image = image[:, :, 0]  Below is the implementation        Python3                                 # importing required libraries  import  mahotas  import  mahotas.demos  from  pylab import  gray, imshow, show  import  numpy as np  import  matplotlib.pyplot as plt        # loading image  ...
