This will call the 2nd function. Now my functions are called step_ID (like step_27(), step_28(), etc.). How to avoid the danger of redefinition? Now, when I write a new function, I search for its name to see if it's unique but there must be a better way.
Before starting to write the new function, write a test and see if it fails with a "NameError new_name not found". The test failure also assures one that the test is being run. (I don't always test first, but I once discovered a test not being run when I modified it in a way that should have made it fail, but it didn't.)
