"""
Default argument values are evaluated at function define-time,
but self is an argument only available at function call time.
This arguments in the argument list cannot refer each other.
It's a common pattern to default an argument to None and add
a test for that in code:
"""
def p(self, b=None):
    if b is None:
        b = self.a
    print b

ReferenceError: self is not defined

Comment

// Assuming the code generating the error is inside a function

// Solution 1: Replace `self` with `this`
function myFunction() {
  // Use `this` instead of `self` inside the function
  console.log(this);
}

// Solution 2: Store outer `this` reference in a variable
function myFunction() {
  const self = this; // Store `this` reference

  // Use `self`, which holds the outer `this` reference, inside the function
  console.log(self);
}
