For something like this I generally create a superclass to hold
configuration variables that will change overtime, doing that will save you
from insanity.

Class configVar:

        #set initial values
        Def __init__(self):
                Self.A = 5
                Self.B = 10
                Self.C = 20


Class myMath(configVars):
        def __init__(self):
                pass

        def SubAandB(self):
                return self.A - self.B

        def AddCandB(self):
                return self.C + self.B

        def MultiplyXbyA(self, x):
                return self.A * x


m = myMath()
X = m.SubAandB()
Y = m.AddCandB()
Z = m.MultiplyXbyA(32)

Keeps your vars in a safer easier to handle, debug, and change kinda way
Good luck

Why not only import foo and using foo.i? In fi() when you set i = 99
you are creating a new object called i in foo's namespace.
