Hi,
I need to create many instances of a class D that inherits from a class
B. Since the constructor of B is expensive I'd like to execute it only
if it's really unavoidable. Below is an example and two workarounds,
but I feel they are not really good solutions. Does somebody have any
ideas how

it seems to b

Okay, so size (and the B object) is effectively a class attribute,

Ah, now I'm getting there. That does the trick.
Probably not worth the trouble in this pa

I don't know that it's ever necessary to rebind, but it is, in fact,
common, and perhaps too easy. In numeric Python, avoiding rebinding
turns out to be a nontrivial skill.
