I have a python module (file) that has a set of parameters associated with it. Let's say the module is called "code.py." I would like to keep the parameter assignments in a separate file so that I can save a copy for each "run" without having to save the entire code.py file. Let's say the parameter file is called "parameters.py."
Normally, code.py would simply import the parameters.py file. However, I don't want the parameters to be accessible to any other file that imports the code.py file. to prevent such access, I preface the name of each parameter with an underscore. But then the parameters aren't even visible in code.py! So I decided to use "execfile" instead of import so the parameters are visible. That solved the problem, but I am just wondering if there is a better and/or more standard way to handle a situation like this. Any suggestions? Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
