Hello,
Lets say that I want to feed an optional list to class constructor:
class Family():
def __init__(self, fName, members = []):
self.fName = fName
self.members = members
Now, lets add members to two different instances of Family:
f1 = Family("Smith")
f1.members.append("Bill")
f2 = Family("Smithers")
f2.members.append("Joe")
Finally, lets look at the members in the Smithers family:
print f2.members
output: ['Bill', 'Joe']
Why on earth is the output ['Bill', 'Joe']!? Is there a simple
solution that separates f1 and f2 without forcing me to write code for
the special case when you don't feed members to the __init__()-function?
