Hi all,
     I've been wandering through the DOCs for an hour and haven't found a 
solution to this
I'm just starting to convert from 2.5 to 3.2 and I have a problem. I have a 
code that looks like this.

from tkinter  import *
import time
import datetime
import string
import math
import random

print (time.localtime())

def foo():
     print (time.localtime())

print(time.localtime())

class StarDate:
     """ implements StarDates regular dates but with output in
     the form: YYYYMMDD:HHMMSS.FFFF
     or represented by a 6-Tuple (Yr, Mon, Day, Hour, Min, Sec)
     """
     def __init__(self, tTuple=None):
         tt=self
         tt.tm_year = tt.tm_mon = tt.tm_mday = tt.tm_hour = 0
         tt.tm_min  = tt.tm_sec = tt.tm_wday = tt.tm_yday = 0
         tt.tm_isdst  = 0
         if type(tTuple) == type(None):
             tTuple = time.localtime()
         elif .......

The two print statements work as expected, printing the tuple of the local time.
The function foo and the StarDate class definition both fail with the error.

    File "starDate.py", line 37 , in foo
       print(time.localtime())
NameError: global name 'time' is not defined
or
   File "starDate.py", line 103, in __init__
     tTuple = time.localtime()
NameError: global name 'time' is not defined

What am I missing?  This is a long used and tested file and class that is used 
in several
more complex python programs.
why doesn't the definition of time at the top level get recognized inside the 
class?
If I can't get a simple two class file working in 3.2, I despair of ever moving 
to 3.2

You may be rebinding to "time" later in the code.
