    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
That is Python (like any other language):
names defined in functions (being left of a =) are local, unless otherwise stated, which means, that they are not defined outside.

In your case, the easiest way is, to return line1 from the def, if line1
is the only content from testcode(), you are interested in:


def testcode():
    line1= [4,5,2,3,1,3]
    return line1

line1 = testcode()
print line1

The other principal way is to use globals:

def testcode():
    global line1
    line1= [4,5,2,3,1,3]

testcode()
print line1
