python local variables

'''Local variables are those that are defined in a block '''
a = 1 #This is NOT a local variable, this is a global variable
def add():
  b = 1 #This IS a local variable
  print(b)
add()
#If we tried to print(b) outside of the add() function, we would get an error

python with statement local variables

A with statement does not create a scope (like if, for and while do not create a scope either).
As a result, Python will analyze the code and see that you made an assignment in the with statement, and thus that will make the variable local (to the real scope).

Python Local Variable

def foo():
    y = "local"


foo()
print(y)

Python Create a Local Variable
