Try dir()

That should give you the names in the current namespace.
You will see some names you didn't define too.

dir()is a really helpful command when you want to see whats possible.

>>> dir('')

Will list all the methods of a string for example.

>>> import math
>>> dir(math)

will list all the math functions and constants.
