If one has not taken time to read the language reference manual and/or
tutorials, one should expect to be taken by surprise.
This behavior has existed in Python from the beginning... That's over
20 years now. It is DOCUMENTED -- in documents that come with every
standard installation of the language, not something one needs to hunt
down. It should not be a surprise to anyone who has taken the time to read
and understand the documentation -- or, at least, has searched the
documentation once they have been surprised (I'll concede that one
read-through at the start may not be sufficient <G>; one may need to
encounter a behavior before the documentation for it makes sense).
Python 2.7 LRM section 7.6 Function Definitions:
"""
Default parameter values are evaluated when the function definition is
executed. This means that the expression is evaluated once, when the
function is defined, and that the same “pre-computed” value is used for
each call. This is especially important to understand when a default
parameter is a mutable object, such as a list or a dictionary: if the
function modifies the object (e.g. by appending an item to a list), the
default value is in effect modified. This is generally not what was
intended. A way around this is to use None as the default, and explicitly
test for it in the body of the function, e.g.:
"""
(and the first sentence is even BOLDED)
But in no way is this "inside knowledge". There is no cabal of folks
hoarding arcana from the rest of the public.
