Re: Python **kwargs ?

What is **kwargs mean in python? When you put double **, does it mean
passing by reference?

here's a little example:

def f(a, *args, **kw):
.... print 'a:',a
.... print 'args:',args
.... print 'kw:',kw
....
f(1,2,3,x=4)
a: 1
args: (2, 3)
kw: {'x': 4}
f(a=1,b=2,c=3)
a: 1
args: ()
kw: {'c': 3, 'b': 2}
