peacettw:local and global variable aka variable scope, is like toilet, the one in your house is only accessible by you, not your neighbors, so also the toilets in their various houses, but the public toilet in the street or town is accessible to all of you. So the local variables are the toilets in your house, while the global variable is like the public toilet. You cannot just run into your neighbor's house and use his toilet, do you? But you can use the public toilet whenever you want, not so? So any variable inside a function is accessible to only that function, not the neighboring function. But the global variable is accessible to all functions in the script. What language are you learning please? It is JavaScript I am learning. 3 Likes |

dometome: Thanks a lot. That part of the explanation has been quite clear to me. But then you see some questions, and when you try to answer it with the same logic, the answer turns out to be wrong. Will post some of those questions here. I am learning python. I have my sights on being a data scientist. So learning both python and R Found some questions. Kindly explain the outputs #Programming language is python a = 1 def f(): print(a) def g(): a = 2 print(a) def h(): global a a = 3 print(a) print('global : ',a) f() print('global : ',a) g() print('global : ',a) h() print('global : ',a) |

sammysmiles:You're not wrong. I think one of the greatest appeals of programming and why we have so many people wanting to enter the field is how easy it is to get into/learn compared to many other fields. |

Karleb: your question is akin to asking "when last did you see somebody drive a McLaren . . . " while the most expensive car in your neck of woods might be a Mercedes Benz, in some areas, that would be the cheapest car you'd spot You get the idea. I used BFS and DFS a couple of months ago for a mobile e-commerce app. You're free to ask me why. |

peacettw:in JavaScript, if you declare a variable outside a function, every function in that script have access to that variable, but do not have any access to variables that are declared inside another function. But if a function is declared in that same function, it still has access to variables declared in that function. It is very simple. I think you should switch over to JavaScript, the language is simpler than python. After you learn python. If you do that, learning python will become to you, a breeze. The only downside is you must learn HTML, (one week) CSS(one month) JavaScript (3 months). If you can, please do It, but if you can't, then focus hard on it. You will overcome. I switched programming language, and I don't regret it. They are all the same thing, just tiny differences here and there. |

peacettw:it is not about being a web developer, it about learning programming. The same skills you have in JavaScript is what you will need even in C++. That is the angle I am coming from |

Regex: Trust me, when you get the jinx of OOP in python, you'll see how easy it is. First, ensure you understand the basics of the OOP concept very well. Then you can move to considering OOP examples in syntax. Then Practice! - 2X OOP, I mastered it when I switched to GUI python programming with Kivy. |
