Okay...this question is crazy old and the OP's not active...so this "special-case" answer is for others. * You can use empty lists to persist data across function calls, as shown here: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/writing/gotchas "Mutable Default Arguments" -When the Gotcha Isn't a Gotcha ...when you "exploit" or intend the function to maintain state between calls of a function ...such as a "caching function"

Imagine you're going to the store. You take a sheet of paper and title it: Grocery List. That title, equates in code to your empty list. What you add or take from the list, from there, is up to you.

For exemple you can fill it with generating for it random numbers or with the user's input
