Python has function scope, I think you mean block scope.

I literally meant the scope of variables. :D

> the scope of variables. :D

Python has 4 types of variable scope°

Block scope like in Perl is none of them, with or without curlies.

But this doesn't mean that "variable scope" is missing in Python.
