I have questions how nonlocal and global affecting the variable assignment. Also how each print statement looking up the values for the spam variable. This scope thing in python is very confusing too me still. Can anyone help me to understand this code w.r.t to scope in Python?
def scope_test(): def do_local(): spam = "local spam" def do_nonlocal(): nonlocal spam spam = "nonlocal spam" def do_global(): global spam spam = "global spam" spam = "test spam" do_local() print("After local assignment:", spam) do_nonlocal() print("After nonlocal assignment:", spam) do_global() print("After global assignment:", spam) scope_test() print("In global scope:", spam) —— $ python3 sample.py After local assignment: test spam After nonlocal assignment: nonlocal spam After global assignment: nonlocal spam In global scope: global spam Thanks, Arup Rakshit a...@zeit.io -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
