I write a script: #!/usr/bin/python astring = "This is a String" def fun1(): astring = "I modify it in fun1" def fun2(): astring = "I modify it in fun2" def main(): print astring fun1() print astring fun2() print astring if __name__ == '__main__': main() ~
~ And I am expecting the output to be: This is a String I modify it in fun1 I modify it in fun2 But it is not so. It always prints This is a String. astring declared outside all the functions, is not in global section and values be overwritten by functions accessing it? - How is this working? - What should I do to overwrite the string variable in the global section within functions?
