when i call a method foo from another method func. can i access func
context
variables or locals() from foo
Yes and there are several ways to do it, but nearly always this is a
bad idea. It will make foo almost totally unusable in any other
context since it will rely on the calling function having local
variables
of a specific name (and possibly type). It is usually much better to
pass the variables into foo at call time. Or even to use global
variables!
def func():
i=10
foo()
How would you write foo? Would you require the variable in func()
to be called i? Or would you assign a referece to it using a
dictionary
to access it?
Can you explain what you really want to do with this? What is the
motivation behind the request? There is probably a better
alternative...
