I am coming from C, C++, and Java background. So I am curious to know why the following Python code works:
def f1():
print(xy)
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("Hello")
xy = 34
f1()
It prints,
Hello
34
How can I access xy
in function f1
? xy
is not defined inside f1
also, xy
is defined in a conditional block of if __name__ == "__main__"
?
Global Variables
In Python, a variable declared outside of the function or in global scope is known as global variable. This means, global variable can be accessed inside or outside of the function.
While in many or most other programming languages variables are treated as global if not otherwise declared, Python deals with variables the other way around. They are local, if not otherwise declared.
def f():
print(x)
x = "Something"
f()
This prints "Something"
