Resetting Global Variables?

[ichabod801]

How would you use a variable globally without being global?

With parameters and return values:

>>>> def add2(x):
...     return x + 2
...
>>> z = 5
>>> z = add2(z)
>>> z
7

Also with classes, which can retain values within an instance of the class. There are links to tutorials for both in my signature below.
