i was wondering, if i have a constructor for an object such as

def __init__(self, ObjectB)

when i pass ObjectB to the new object instance, is it copied or referenced. because what i want is for this new object to have direct access to ObjectB. am i accomplishing this? cuz it seems not. its sort of wierd. thanks.
