Thanks for the great explanation, Steven. And I agree with Josh that changing the exception text would lead to blindly adding nonlocal or global in a superficial attempt to get the code to work. The much more likely problem is already mentioned: reference before assignment. So, I'm going to close this. ---------- nosy: +eric.smith resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed type: compile error -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37568> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
