It isn't clear to me from your posts what exactly you're proposing as an alternative to the way Python's default argument binding works. In your version of Python, what exactly would happen when I passed a mutable argument as a default value in a def statement? E.g. this:
>>> a = [1, 2, 3] >>> a.append(a) >>> b = object() >>> def f(x = [None, b, [a, [4]]]): ... pass # do something What would you like to see the interpreter do in this case? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
