Dear tutors, I have the following code snippet:
class N (object) : def __init__ (self, d={}) : self.d = d n1 = N () n1.d['a'] = 1 n2 = N () n2.d['a'] = 2 print n1.d['a'] print n2.d['a'] I assumed that on each call of the __init__ without a dictionary provided, a new dictionary is created. This turns out to be not the case: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python test.py 2 2 Does anybody know why this is the case? And what would be the most convenient solution to enforce the dynamic creation of the dictionary? Many thanks for your time and patience, Bart. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
