Use default arguments when defining your function: default arguments are 
evaluated when the function is defined, bound arguments get the current 
value of the variable at the point when it is referenced during the call.

Also, since you give your function a name anyway ('b') you might as well 
use a named function as being clearer than using lambda:

>>> a = []
>>> for i in range(4):
	def b(i=i):
		return i**2
	a.append(b)

	
>>> for f in a:
	f()

	
0
1
4
9
