Hi everybody, See the following example:
######### def tutu(): def toto(): print a a = 4 print a a=2 toto() tutu() ########## I obtain the following error: "UnboundLocalError: local variable 'a' referenced before assignment" This is because Python looks in the local context before looking in the global context. The use of "global a" in toto() does not help because global allows to force Python to look for the variable at the module level. So, how to share a variable between intricated functions? Thanks a lot Julien -- python -c "print ''.join([chr(154 - ord(c)) for c in '*9(9&(18%.\ 9&1+,\'Z4(55l4('])" "When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right.
