In many object-oriented languages objects have referential semantics. A variable holding an object does not hold the object itself but rather a pointer, a reference, to it. Assignment copies the reference instead of the object. This behavior is desirable in many cases. You don't want to copy your controller classes when you have several variables for it. | In many object-oriented languages objects have referential semantics.
