I think what you want to do is this: class foo (object): def __init__(self, len=9): self._len = len def foo2(self, len=None): if len is None: len = self._len # ... Default arguments are for when you want to use exactly the same object each time the function/method is called. If you the object you want to use depends on something, you can use this arg=None idiom. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
