Using Python Tutor to learn how Python looks up variables

In this video, I use Python Tutor to explain how Python looks up variables, in particular in the context of function calls. We learn about the three scoping rules "Local scope goes away", "Global scope is everywhere", and the concept of "Shadowing".

PYTHON BOOK
The lecture is based on the free book "Introduction to Python & Programming".
