Comment #40 on issue 1757 by asmeurer: coding style http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1757
Yeah, self is nothing special in Python; it's just a conventional name for the first argument of methods that is automatically given as object in object.method(…). It's not like by doing "self = something" that you are rewriting the object itself. So to me it's no different than overriding any other function argument variable.
Or is there still a good reason not to do this that I am not seeing? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy-issues" group.
