Do I have to work with the 'global' statement , like this ? e.g: modul_foo: def foo2(): x,y=2,3 foo(x,y) def foo(foo1,foo2): global x,y x=foo1+1 y=foo2+1 Result in foo2: x=3 , y=4 ? ralph -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Daniel Rusch [mailto:drusch@globalcrossing.com] Gesendet: Freitag, 23.

Hi,

for some external methods in zope i have do write some python scripts.

Here my question: I want do a 'function - call by reference' in python.

My function definition is like that:

def foo(foo1,foo2): foo1=1 foo2=2

My intention is to call the function from an other function in the python script like

def foo2(): x,y=2,3 foo(x,y)

I know that python is working with seperate namespaces in case of function calls, but is there a work-around for this problem.
