    # as d was opened WITHOUT writeback=True, beware:

    # having opened d without writeback=True, you need to code carefully:
-   temp = d['xx']      # extracts the copy
-   temp.append(5)      # mutates the copy
-   d['xx'] = temp      # stores the copy right back, to persist it

+   d['xx'] = temp             # stores the copy right back, to persist it
 
    # or, d=shelve.open(filename,writeback=True) would let you just code
    # d['xx'].append(5) and have it work as expected, BUT it would also
    # consume more memory and make the d.close() operation slower.
 
-   d.close()       # close it
