I just tried on my system with python 3.6: ``` >>> pprint(list(signal.Signals)) [, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ] ``` so I'm not sure what the issue is, but #worksforme. -- zmo ___ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

It's happening once for the the lifetime of the execution of your code. By allocating the `bar` reference into the `self.list` member, you're assigning the same *instance* of that list into the `self.list` member. So everytime you create a new Foo instance, you're actually assigning the same `[]` instance into `self.list` which is why, when you mutate the list, it's happening in all the instances of Foo as well. I hope it makes sense to you ! -- Guyzmo ___ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
