5. The variable wd is meant to be "global" to the script. In other
languages I've programmed in I've seen some typographic convention
used for the name of such variables (e.g. all caps) to signal this
widened scope. Does python have such a convention?
As a general rule, it's best to avoid globals variables as much as
possible.
However, this is not really a global variable, this is a constant,
which is not something to be avoided, nor something that there is a
convention for (as far as I know).
In Python the convention for constants is CAPS_WITH_UNDERSCORES.
