See: http://www.faqs.org/docs/diveintopython/dialect_locals.html
When a line of code asks for the value of a variable x, Python will
search for that variable in all the available namespaces, in order:
1. local namespace - specific to the current function or class
method. If the function defines a local variable x, or has an
argument x, Python will use this and stop searching.
2. global namespace - specific to the current module. If the module
has defined a variable, function, or class called x, Python will
use that and stop searching.
3. built-in namespace - global to all modules. As a last resort,
Python will assume that x is the name of built-in function or
variable.
