Use Built-in id() Method to Determine the Memory Address of the Object

Mridu Bhatnagar: [0:00] L is equal to a list object having element 1, 2, 3. This line means we are assigning a variable L to a list object present in memory, having elements 1, 2, and 3.

[0:25] Id() is a built-in method present in Python that accepts an object as a parameter, so here we are parsing L. Enter.

[0:40] Now, the returned number that you see here is a unique id returned by the built-in method. This unique id tells us the address of object in memory.
