Pytorch variable changes numpy variable even though memory addresses are not same
I have the following bit of code:

a = torch.ones(10); b = a.numpy()
a[0] += 1
print(a, b)


Both variables essentially hold the same values even though I only modified a. However, I checked the memory addresses of a and b using hex(id(a)) and they're different. So in this case, is b a pointer to a? What's going on?

Actually the raw data is at the same address. You can check like this,

a.storage().data_ptr()                    


Out[16]: 93866530123392

b.__array_interface__['data']             


Out[17]: (93866530123392, False)
