[Python]Shallow and Deep copy operation

The difference between shallow and deep copying is only relevant for compound objects (objects that contain other objects, like lists or class instances).

import copy

class MyKlass(object):
    def __init__(self,name):
        self.name = name
    def test(self):
        print "this is " + self.name

class MyDict(dict):
    pass

def myFunction():
    print "this is function"


if __name__ == '__main__':
    k = type(MyKlass)
    print k    
    NewClass = copy.copy(MyKlass)
    NewClass("Python").test()
    d = type(MyDict)
    print d.__base__
    f = type(myFunction)
    print f.__name__
