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)

_counter = 0
def foo():
   global _counter
   _counter += 1
   print 'counter is', _counter

Python习惯上使用下划线来表示私有变量。在C语言中，在函数内部声明静态变量的唯一原因是将它隐藏在函数之外，这并不是真正的Python惯用方法。

米格尔·安吉洛的自我重新定义解决方案甚至可以不需要任何装饰:

def fun(increment=1):
    global fun
    counter = 0
    def fun(increment=1):
        nonlocal counter
        counter += increment
        print(counter)
    fun(increment)

fun()    #=> 1
fun()    #=> 2
fun(10)  #=> 12

第二行必须进行调整，以获得有限的范围:

def outerfun():
    def innerfun(increment=1):
        nonlocal innerfun
        counter = 0
        def innerfun(increment=1):
            nonlocal counter
            counter += increment
            print(counter)
        innerfun(increment)

    innerfun()    #=> 1
    innerfun()    #=> 2
    innerfun(10)  #=> 12

outerfun()

装饰器的优点是，你不必额外注意你的施工范围。

根据丹尼尔的回答(补充):

class Foo(object): 
    counter = 0  

def __call__(self, inc_value=0):
    Foo.counter += inc_value
    return Foo.counter

foo = Foo()

def use_foo(x,y):
    if(x==5):
        foo(2)
    elif(y==7):
        foo(3)
    if(foo() == 10):
        print("yello")


use_foo(5,1)
use_foo(5,1)
use_foo(1,7)
use_foo(1,7)
use_foo(1,1)

我想添加这一部分的原因是，静态变量不仅用于增加某个值，而且还用于检查静态变量是否等于某个值，作为一个现实生活中的例子。

静态变量仍然受到保护，并且仅在函数use_foo()的作用域内使用。

在这个例子中，调用foo()函数完全是(相对于相应的c++等效函数):

stat_c +=9; // in c++
foo(9)  #python equiv

if(stat_c==10){ //do something}  // c++

if(foo() == 10):      # python equiv
  #add code here      # python equiv       

Output :
yello
yello

如果类Foo被严格定义为一个单例类，那将是理想的。这将使它更加python化。

鉴于这个问题，我可以提出另一个可能更好用的替代方案，对方法和函数看起来都是一样的:

@static_var2('seed',0)
def funccounter(statics, add=1):
    statics.seed += add
    return statics.seed

print funccounter()       #1
print funccounter(add=2)  #3
print funccounter()       #4

class ACircle(object):
    @static_var2('seed',0)
    def counter(statics, self, add=1):
        statics.seed += add
        return statics.seed

c = ACircle()
print c.counter()      #1
print c.counter(add=2) #3
print c.counter()      #4
d = ACircle()
print d.counter()      #5
print d.counter(add=2) #7
print d.counter()      #8    

如果你喜欢这种用法，下面是它的实现:

class StaticMan(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.__dict__['_d'] = {}

    def __getattr__(self, name):
        return self.__dict__['_d'][name]
    def __getitem__(self, name):
        return self.__dict__['_d'][name]
    def __setattr__(self, name, val):
        self.__dict__['_d'][name] = val
    def __setitem__(self, name, val):
        self.__dict__['_d'][name] = val

def static_var2(name, val):
    def decorator(original):
        if not hasattr(original, ':staticman'):    
            def wrapped(*args, **kwargs):
                return original(getattr(wrapped, ':staticman'), *args, **kwargs)
            setattr(wrapped, ':staticman', StaticMan())
            f = wrapped
        else:
            f = original #already wrapped

        getattr(f, ':staticman')[name] = val
        return f
    return decorator
