I have a module with the following code in a module named pytest1.py:
def addcount():
counter = 1
for x in range(10):
counter += 1
if counter == 5:
count = counter
print(count)
addcount()
I want to access 'count' variable in another module named pytest2.py I tried :
import pytest1 as p
print(p.addcount.count)
The count variable isn't created until addcount() is called, and it only exists during execution of "pytest1.py", so you can't import it directly. You should have addcount() return count instead of printing it to console.
You must return the variable count when addcount() is called such as,
def addcount():
counter = 1
for x in range(10):
counter += 1
if counter == 5:
count = counter
return count
then call the addcount and store the variable returned,
import pytest1 as p
a=p.addcount()
print(a)
Hope this helps you, let me know if anything is incorrect.
