Question

In python, is it possible to define overrideable, optional default values, where if you define the value, it doesn’t use the default, but if you don’t, it does?

For example:

def hats(a= 'large', b= 'baseball', c= 'five dollars'):
    #method stuff goes here

I know I could define a, and then b and c will default, but could I somehow just define c and have a and b use the defaults?

Like, could I call method hats(NULL, something, something else)

Answer 1

could I somehow just define c and have a and b use the defaults

Sure:

hats(c = 'something')

will use the default values for a and b.
