Hello,
I understand that you want to share data across examples (docstrings)
because you are running doctest to validate them (and test).
The doctest implementation evaluates each docstring separately without
sharing the context so the short answer is "no".
This is a limitation of doctest

Good point, and perhaps it's best to put a comprehensive example in the
class docstring,

This seems like trying to cram too much information into the
docstring, but oh well... do what you will.
Hello,
I am searching for a mechanism for sharing data across Examples sections
in docstrings within a class. For instance:
class Foo:
def foo(self):
"""Method foo title
The example generating data below may be much more laborious.
