Hi all,
Going through the tutorial brought up a question. Consider the functions:
def f(a, L=[]):
L.append(a)
return L
print f(3)
print f(9)
print f(7)
def f1(i = 0):
i = i + 1
print i
f1()
f1()
f1()
f1()
Since the f accumulates the values in L, I was expecting to see i
printing 1,2,3,4 but this doesn't happen.
Can someone please explain why and what is going on beneath the veil?
Cheers,
