This is not a bug, this is working as the language is designed, and the behaviour occurs for all functions, not just class methods. Default values are only evaluated once, when the function is defined, not every time the function is called. This is even described in the FAQs: https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#id13 ---------- nosy: +steven.daprano resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44216> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
