persisting data within a module

I'm having trouble understanding how namespaces work in modules. I want to execute a module within the interpreter and then have values that are calculated persist so that other modules that get executed can retrieve them. For example, consider the two simple modules below. The first method f

Re: persisting data within a module

I'm not sure how to better state my question than to post my code. The question boils down to which namespace to variable in the module (in this case A) end up in depending on whether or not the module is simply imported by another module which acts as the driver (run.py is __main__), or when

I want to interpret a file (or whatever you call it) and then keep the interactive interpreter alive so I can then continue to issue commands. How can this be done? I saw online a -m flag but it does not seem to work. Thanks -- Peter Bismuti Boeing -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/li

Re: persisting data within a module

Re: module data member?

This did the trick for the most part, but it still leaves a copy of the variable A in the "non-module" global namespace (see output below). I want A declared global to the module (so as not to be local within the functions of the module) but not visible outside of the module namespace (like B
