For example:

class FooBar:
    def __init__(self):
        self.a: int = None
        self.foo: str = None

Is this bad practice/go against PEP guidelines or is it fine?

    That seems like that’s going to give you an error in most type checkers. You said it’s always an int and then immediate made that a lie and made it None instead.

    Why are you trying to do this?

      I’m initializing variables that would be used later in the class in different functions. I wasn’t sure if I needed to do a var: <type> | None = None or if just setting it to None was fine.
