$ for i in range(10): print("int %d, id = %d" % (i, id(i)))
int 0, id = 140706145489672
int 1, id = 140706145489704
int 2, id = 140706145489736
int 3, id = 140706145489768
int 4, id = 140706145489800
int 5, id = 140706145489832
int 6, id = 140706145489864
int 7, id = 140706145489896
int 8, id = 140706145489928
int 9, id = 140706145489960
