<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577786 by <a href="/recipes/users/4177816/">Eric Snow</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/default_arguments/">default_arguments</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/deferred/">deferred</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/function/">function</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/functions/">functions</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>Improved handling of mutable and deferred default arguments. After the recipe you'll find an explanation of what that means.</p> <p>Works for 2.7 with minor tweaks (getfullargspec --> getargspec).</p>

And it doesn't do the __prepare__ part of 3.x metaclasses.</p>
