Equivalent of extern(C/C++) in Python?

[Impaled]

I'm new to python, and trying to find a way of accesing a variable that is in another file. I think that "global" is kind of different in python than in most languages. Anyway is there an equivalent of "extern" like in c or c++? any help is greatly appreciated

regards,

John

If you've imported the file and it's declared as global in the other file, then use "global variablename" in your file.

Or you can use "from otherfile import variablename".

Or you can say "import otherfile" and reference "otherfile.variablename".
