I think you are using ‘global’ incorrectly. See Python reference. You should declare variable without global and then inside the function when you want to access global variable you declare it global yourvar
.
#!/usr/bin/python total def checkTotal(): global total total = 0
See this example:
#!/usr/bin/env python total = 0 def doA(): # not accessing global total total = 10 def doB(): global total total = total + 1 def checkTotal(): # global total - not required as global is required # only for assignment - thanks for comment Greg print total def main(): doA() doB() checkTotal() if __name__ == '__main__': main()
Because doA()
does not modify the global total the output is 1 not 11.
