Let A be a table. I give following sequence of commands:

>>B:=A;
>>A[x]=34:

Then surprisingly (at least for me) it turns that B has also changed its value for B[x]. Would someone help me understand this? What is it called? How we can stop this behaviour i.e. A and B should behave as independent tables?
