When quoting, please include the source, preferably a direct link. In Python 1 and 2, there were two function local namespace *implementations* -- array index by number or dictionary indexed by name. The implementation, and hence the lookup mode, was fixed at compile time. In Python 3, the one *implementation*, and its lookup mode, are fixed. The slower implementation was dropped because it was not thought worth the bother. When you invoke the save function while playing a game, I am imagine that the save function does not have access to and does not same the locals of whatever function was executing at the time you hit the save key. Rather a game and player states are serialized, and likely not in one line of code. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44028> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
