Hi,
If you store the variables in __init__.py, you can import them from the
package. So in your case suppose __init__.py contains:
a = 10
b = {1 :"Hello", 2: "World" }
Than if you import my_package, you can access the variables as follows
(interactive IPython session):
In [1]: import my_package
In [2]: my_pack
my_package my_package/
In [2]: my_package.
my_package.a my_package.b
In [2]: my_package.a
Out[2]: 10
In [3]: my_package.b
Out[3]: {1: 'Hello', 2: 'World'}
In [4]:
