Dear All,
I ran my code through pylint to clean it up and one of the (many) errors it
through up was
Dangerous default value {} as argument
Bascially, I have:
class NewClass:
def __init__(self, myDict={}):
for key, value in myDict:
print key, value
Obviously, this is not the way it should be done. Should I have a default
value of None for myDict and test for it? Or is there some other way?
If you *know* you will not be modifying the contents
of myDict, and you *know* you will not be modifying
the function in the future to do so, then it's
completely safe as written...
