其他答案已经演示了您应该如何做到这一点。这里有一种方法你不应该:

>>> def foo(counter=[0]):
...   counter[0] += 1
...   print("Counter is %i." % counter[0]);
... 
>>> foo()
Counter is 1.
>>> foo()
Counter is 2.
>>> 

默认值仅在函数第一次求值时初始化，而不是每次执行时初始化，因此可以使用列表或任何其他可变对象来存储静态值。

我写了一个简单的函数来使用静态变量:

def Static():
    ### get the func object by which Static() is called.
    from inspect import currentframe, getframeinfo
    caller = currentframe().f_back
    func_name = getframeinfo(caller)[2]
    # print(func_name)
    caller = caller.f_back
    func = caller.f_locals.get(
        func_name, caller.f_globals.get(
            func_name
        )
    )
    
    class StaticVars:
        def has(self, varName):
            return hasattr(self, varName)
        def declare(self, varName, value):
            if not self.has(varName):
                setattr(self, varName, value)

    if hasattr(func, "staticVars"):
        return func.staticVars
    else:
        # add an attribute to func
        func.staticVars = StaticVars()
        return func.staticVars

使用方法:

def myfunc(arg):
    if Static().has('test1'):
        Static().test += 1
    else:
        Static().test = 1
    print(Static().test)

    # declare() only takes effect in the first time for each static variable.
    Static().declare('test2', 1)
    print(Static().test2)
    Static().test2 += 1

其他解决方案将计数器属性附加到函数，通常使用复杂的逻辑来处理初始化。这对于新代码是不合适的。

在Python 3中，正确的方法是使用非局部语句:

counter = 0
def foo():
    nonlocal counter
    counter += 1
    print(f'counter is {counter}')

有关非局部语句的规范，请参阅PEP 3104。

如果计数器是模块私有的，则应该将其命名为_counter。

我个人更喜欢下面的装饰。各有各的。

def staticize(name, factory):
    """Makes a pseudo-static variable in calling function.

    If name `name` exists in calling function, return it. 
    Otherwise, saves return value of `factory()` in 
    name `name` of calling function and return it.

    :param name: name to use to store static object 
    in calling function
    :type name: String
    :param factory: used to initialize name `name` 
    in calling function
    :type factory: function
    :rtype: `type(factory())`

    >>> def steveholt(z):
    ...     a = staticize('a', list)
    ...     a.append(z)
    >>> steveholt.a
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'a'
    >>> steveholt(1)
    >>> steveholt.a
    [1]
    >>> steveholt('a')
    >>> steveholt.a
    [1, 'a']
    >>> steveholt.a = []
    >>> steveholt.a
    []
    >>> steveholt('zzz')
    >>> steveholt.a
    ['zzz']

    """
    from inspect import stack
    # get scope enclosing calling function
    calling_fn_scope = stack()[2][0]
    # get calling function
    calling_fn_name = stack()[1][3]
    calling_fn = calling_fn_scope.f_locals[calling_fn_name]
    if not hasattr(calling_fn, name):
        setattr(calling_fn, name, factory())
    return getattr(calling_fn, name)

许多人已经建议测试“hasattr”，但有一个更简单的答案:

def func():
    func.counter = getattr(func, 'counter', 0) + 1

没有try/except，没有测试hasattr，只有默认的getattr。

Python没有静态变量，但你可以通过定义一个可调用的类对象，然后将其用作函数来伪装它。也可以看看这个答案。

class Foo(object):
  # Class variable, shared by all instances of this class
  counter = 0

  def __call__(self):
    Foo.counter += 1
    print Foo.counter

# Create an object instance of class "Foo," called "foo"
foo = Foo()

# Make calls to the "__call__" method, via the object's name itself
foo() #prints 1
foo() #prints 2
foo() #prints 3

注意，__call__使类(对象)的实例可以通过自己的名称调用。这就是为什么上面调用foo()会调用类的__call__方法。从文档中可以看到:

任意类的实例都可以通过在类中定义__call__()方法来实现可调用。
