Why do reversed list and original list on comparison result as equal although the item indices for a particular item are different?

Question

I am implementing this code:

a = input("Enter number")
list_a = list(a)
temp = list_a
list_a.reverse()
print(temp == list_a)
#input:513
#output:False

But instead of getting False, I am getting True. Why does reversed list and original list on comparison give True?
