This didn't seem to fit anywhere in the python section, but apparently this is valid: True = False Now True will equate to False. |

How strange. Any idea how this is? |

there's a difference between "True" the variable and "True" the value. It kind of looks like there's a variable called True and it initially holds a value that has a string representation of "True". |

Right, I was thinking something along that, maybe it was a built in function that returns true |

You can see this
EDIT: Interesting note, True = False is illegal in python 3 (at least in my version). It seems that they are now keywords. |
