If you only want to check for None, this works too:
>>> name = None
>>> dafault_value = "default"
>>> name or default_value
'default'
>>> name = 'Fred Flintstone'
>>> name or default_value
'Fred Flintstone'
>>> name = ''
>>> name or default_value
'default'
>>> name = False
>>> name or default_value
'default'
>>> name = []
>>> name or default_value
'default'
>>> name = 0
>>> name or default_value
'default'
You haven't only checked for None! You have rejected *every* falsish
value, even though they may very well be acceptable values.
