25dd86715039586d92176eee16e9c6644d2547f0 Avoid using mutable default parameter values (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Avoid common Python default parameter gotcha when mutable `dict`/`list`:s are used as default parameter values.
Examples of this gotcha caught during review:
* https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16673#discussion_r317415261
* https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/14565#discussion_r241942304
Perhaps surprisingly this is how mutable list and dictionary default parameter values behave in Python:
```
>>> def f(i, j=[], k={}):
... j.append(i)
... k[i] = True
... return j, k
...
>>> f(1)
([1], {1: True})
>>> f(1)
([1, 1], {1: True})
>>> f(2)
([1, 1, 2], {1: True, 2: True})
```
In contrast to:
```
>>> def f(i, j=None, k=None):
... if j is None:
... j = []
... if k is None:
... k = {}
... j.append(i)
... k[i] = True
... return j, k
...
>>> f(1)
([1], {1: True})
>>> f(1)
([1], {1: True})
>>> f(2)
([2], {2: True})
```
The latter is typically the intended behaviour.
This PR fixes two instances of this and adds a check guarding against this gotcha going forward :-)

This is how mutable list and dict default parameter values behave:
|
|
|
|
>>> def f(i, j=[], k={}):
|
|
... j.append(i)
|
|
... k[i] = True
|
|
... return j, k
|
|
...
|
|
>>> f(1)
|
|
([1], {1: True})
|
|
>>> f(1)
|
|
([1, 1], {1: True})
|
|
>>> f(2)
|
|
([1, 1, 2], {1: True, 2: True})
|
|
|
|
The intended behaviour was likely:
|
|
|
|
>>> def f(i, j=None, k=None):
|
|
... if j is None:
|
|
... j = []
|
|
... if k is None:
|
|
... k = {}
|
|
... j.append(i)
|
|
... k[i] = True
|
|
... return j, k
|
|
...
|
|
>>> f(1)
|
|
([1], {1: True})
|
|
>>> f(1)
|
|
([1], {1: True})
|
|
>>> f(2)
|
|
([2], {2: True})
