Send by ref/by ptr in python?
This question already has an answer here:
In some ways, all calls in Python are called with references. In fact, all variables are references in a sense. But some types, like int
from your example, cannot be changed.
In the case of, say, a list
, the functionality you're looking for is trivial:
def change_it(some_list):
some_list.append("world")
foo = ["hello"]
change_it(foo)
print(foo) # prints ['hello', 'world']
Note, however, that reassigning the parameter variable some_list
does not change the value in the calling context.
If you're asking this question, though, you're probably looking to do something like set two or three variables using one function. In that case, you're looking for something like this:
def foo_bar(x, y, z):
return 2*x, 3*y, 4*z
x = 3
y = 4
z = 5
x, y, z = foo_bar(x, y, z)
print(y) # prints 12
Of course, you can do anything in Python, but that doesn't mean you should. In the fashion of the TV show Mythbusters, here's something that does what you're looking for
import inspect
def foo(bar):
frame = inspect.currentframe()
outer = inspect.getouterframes(frame)[1][0]
outer.f_locals[bar] = 2 * outer.f_locals[bar]
a = 15
foo("a")
print(a) # prints 30
or even worse:
import inspect
import re
def foo(bar):
# get the current call stack
my_stack = inspect.stack()
# get the outer frame object off of the stack
outer = my_stack[1][0]
# get the calling line of code; see the inspect module documentation
# only works if the call is not split across multiple lines of code
calling_line = my_stack[1][4][0]
# get this function's name
my_name = my_stack[0][3]
# do a regular expression search for the function call in traditional form
# and extract the name of the first parameter
m = re.search(my_name + "s*(s*(w+)s*)", calling_line)
if m:
# finally, set the variable in the outer context
outer.f_locals[m.group(1)] = 2 * outer.f_locals[m.group(1)]
else:
raise TypeError("Non-traditional function call. Why don't you just"
" give up on pass-by-reference already?")
# now this works like you would expect
a = 15
foo(a)
print(a)
# but then this doesn't work:
baz = foo_bar
baz(a) # raises TypeError
# and this *really*, disastrously doesn't work
a, b = 15, 20
foo_bar, baz = str, foo_bar
baz(b) and foo_bar(a)
print(a, b) # prints 30, 20
Please, please, please , don't do this. I only put it in here to inspire the reader to look into some of the more obscure parts of Python.
As far as I am aware, this doesn't exist in Python (although a similar thing occurs if you pass mutable objects to a function). You would do either
def test():
global x
x = 3
test()
or
def test(x):
return 3
x = test(x)
The second of these is much preferred.
