Martin Panter added the comment: Regarding “free variables”, in Issue 17546 I proposed the wording “. . . also includes non-local, non-global names”.
In your code example, I would consider y to be 100 percent local to the g() function. It is a function parameter, and “y += 1” should work. I agree x is not a true local, it is a “non-local non-global”. A national variable maybe :) For functions, considering that you shouldn’t modify the dictionary (original concern in Issue 17546), I do agree the behaviour is a bit strange and inconsistent. It might have made more sense to either only return true locals, or return a complete namespace of locals, non-locals, globals, and builtins. It seems there is no way to get a similar list of non-local non-globals in a class scope. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26683> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
