Re: Use self.vars in class.method(parameters, self.vars)

[Karim]

You're right. Sure the method header is evaluated first I usually not
fall in this trap when default is a list but a singleton one with the same
id.
I answered too fast, I did not understand if he forget the dot or what.
And the double '_' in init was strange because he uses only one '_' after.

Thanks to take time to point that.

I think you did a typo

it is

def foo2(self, len = self._myvar):
        while i<   len:
      dosomething

That, of course, won't work: the default argument (in this case:
"self._myvar") is looked up when the function is created, and stored
with the function. "self" does not exist at that point. (or, if it does,
it's the wrong "self")
