variable scope

[Cris A. Fugate]

Hi, Im new to Python and I have a question about variable scope.

It seems that any variable declared in a function is local.

Is there any way to define a global variable within a function?

For example, Tcl can use eval and uplevel to evaluate code

on any scope level.  In Scheme a local variable uses let,

otherwise it is global.
