This doesn't work because you can't reference keyword arguments in the
keyword argument array. This will work:
class MyClass:
def __init__(self):
""" initialize
Really? These are the worst docstrings ever.
"""
self.a = 3
self.b = 4
def MyMethod(self, a=None, b=None)
if a is not None:
self.a = a
if b is not None:
self.b = b
DoSomething(a, b)
