Define

class theholy:
     def dosth(self):
         print "a grrrail??"
         self.coconut=1231  
         self.rabbit=12     
         class snake:
             super = self      
             def donothing(self): 
                 print "yes, a grrrail"
                 # NOW... how can I get the value of coconut?
                 # A: use self.super.coconut
                 self.super.coconut = 1423
         a=snake()
         a.donothing()
