I checked some answers like this, but I have another question about which attributes get imported from a module in python.
For example, I have a module temp9.py
:
a=10
b=20
print('a={0}, b={1}'.format(a,b))
def t9outer():
print('in imported module')
def t9inner():
print('inner function')
Then I import this module like so: import temp9
. If I get the attributes of the imported file using this command:
list(filter(lambda x: not x.startswith('__'),dir(temp9)))
I get this output:
['a', 'b', 't9outer']
My questions are
a
andb
are global only in the scope oftemp9
, not across the modules (as the above answer says), so how does it get exported?Why was
t9inner()
not imported even though it is enclosed byt9outer()
, which gets imported?
