Module 16 Python namespace and scope | Introduction to Python 1 | Programming basics

A namespace in Python is like a unique name for objects (variables or methods). Think of it as a surname for students with the same first name. Python uses namespaces to figure out which object you're referring to based on where you're looking.
Types of namespaces include built-in (functions like print()), global (created when you make modules), and local (inside functions). Local namespaces are inside global namespaces, which are inside built-in namespaces.
Each namespace's lifetime depends on where it's created. In Python's variable scope, you have at least three nested scopes:
Local Scope: For the current function.
Global Scope: For the entire module.
Built-In Scope: Globally available.
When you reference a variable, Python looks in local, then global, then built-in namespaces.
Understanding namespaces and scopes is key to managing variables and functions in Python. #Python #Namespaces #VariableScope #ProgrammingConcepts #coding #students #elearning
