I have a little question about variables. My main language is Java (and I'm learning Python) so, I have a problem calling a variable in a function, it doesn't refresh its new value:  # Values global e1x, e1y, e1c, e2x, e2y, e2c, altx, alty, x, y  def getValues():     print("Taking Ax + By = C:")     e1x = float(input("Value of x in first equation: "))     #...     if(confirm()): # A function I ommited 'cause its irrelevant         return e1x, e1y, e1c, e2x, e2y, e2c     else:         getValues()  def calculateValues():     # Stuff with variables   # MAIN getValues() calculateValues()   I tried to write it without the global, tried to use the self word but, It doesn't work. (Using Python 3)  ERROR:   Traceback (most recent call last):    File "E002_GaussSeidel.py", line 41, in &lt;module&gt;       calculateValues()    File "E002_GaussSeidel.py", line 34, in calculateValues       print(str(e1x))  NameError: name 'e1x' is not defined
How can I create or use a global variable in a function?  If I create a global variable in one function, how can I use that global variable in another function? Do I need to store the global variable in a local variable of the function which needs its access?
I've been looking around on the internet and I can't find anything in depth on how the cable/connection functions. I've only been able to find simple pin out descriptions.  If someone can link me or point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful. What is "my guy syndrome" and how do I handle it? Tracking the questions you've recently viewed or visited On your user profile page there are six (6) tabs; stats, activity, reputation, favorites, prefs and accounts.  I would like to see in a new tab, maybe named 50 latest viewed questions, which would contain the 50 latest viewed questions.  This would help when I want to follow a question but don't want to bookmark it or add it to my favorites list.   Sometimes, or a few hours later, I can't even find it again. I think this would be good for when you're viewing questions at work and want to check it up at home but can't because it's not in the same browser history. Are IP addresses with and without leading zeroes the same? Getting GIF and/or moving images into a LaTeX presentation I'm very new to presentations in LaTeX (I've been using PowerPoint for years but have finally converted). I am wondering how to get a GIF into a section. If need be, I can convert a GIF into lots of pictures and have them overlay to give the impression of movement. What is the fate of the Asgardians at the start of Avengers: Infinity War? Thor: Ragnarok ends with the remaining people of Asgard aboard a refugee ship that meets Thanos' ship. Avengers: Infinity War opens with      Thanos and his minions having commandeered the ship and several bodies can be seen on the floor.   This begs the question, what happened to these characters:   Korg Miek Asguardian extra #3 Valkyrie Define a relation and find its equivalence classes. Simple way to monitor a multiple URLDownloadSubmit calls? What is a 'multi-part identifier' and why can't it be bound? I continually get these errors when I try to update tables based on another table. I end up rewriting the query, change the order of joins, change some groupings and then it eventually works, but I just don't quite get it.  What is a 'multi-part identifier'? When is a 'multi-part identifier' not able to be bound? What is it being bound to anyway? In what cases will this error occur? What are the best ways to prevent it?    The specific error from SQL Server 2005 is:     The multi-part identifier "..." could not be bound.   Here is an example:  UPDATE  [test].[dbo].[CompanyDetail]  SET Mnemonic = [dbBWKMigration].[dbo].[Company].[MNEMONIC],                 [Company Code] = [dbBWKMigration].[dbo].[Company].[COMPANYCODE]  WHERE [Company Name] = **[dbBWKMigration].[dbo].[Company].[COMPANYNAME]**   The actual error:     Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 3 The multi-part identifier   "dbBWKMigration.dbo.Company.COMPANYNAME" could not be bound. How can I check if the editor that is currently being used is Gutenberg in a WordPress plugin?  I need this because Gutenberg lacks post_submitbox_misc_actions, so I need a fallback which will only be used if the current editor is Gutenberg. Removing all 'stable' theme's CSS from a Drupal 8 custom theme I would like to remove all CSSs automatically included from stable theme:  /core/themes/stable/css/system/components/*   I can remove them one by one inside the .info.yml file:  stylesheets-remove:   - 'core/themes/stable/css/system/components/ajax-progress.module.css'   - 'core/themes/stable/css/system/components/autocomplete-loading.module.css'   - ...   Is there a way to remove all of them at once?   Something like:  stylesheets-remove:   - 'core/themes/stable/css/system/components/*' What are some of the rule changes that Pathfinder brings in comparison to D&amp;D 3.5?  I am curious what changes were made so I can explain to my group what it has to offer. How to extend summations to fractional orders? I have some questions regarding suspended users:   Why do suspended users have a reputation of one? According to the default reputation of a new user, he/she will have reputation of one and he/she has the privilege of posting questions. When comparing this, this is getting violated when compared to suspended users' reputation. Even though they have one reputation point, they cannot post questions. As suspended users do not have privilege of posting questions, there is no use of making "Ask Question" visible. This is an unnecessary server hit. Am I right? As suspended users do not have the privilege of answering questions, there is no use of making "Answer Question" visible. Looking at your network profile, there is no number anywhere in your entire profile that has a sum of all your reputation across the network except for the flair page, which isn't always accurate because it's cached, and isn't exact because it rounds. Yet, there's so much empty space on the profile page.  My simple idea is to list the user's total reputation and badge counts below their Gravatar image like on any normal profile page across the network (keeping the rule of only accounts with over 200 reputation). It would make it incredibly easy to find and I wouldn't have to go search for myself on Area 51 to figure it out. Suppose we have a set of primes $p_1,\dots,p_t$. Prove that  $\log p_1,\dots,\log p_t$ is linear independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. Now, this implies $ \sum_{j=1}^{t}x_j\log(p_j)=0 \iff x_1=\dots=x_t=0$.  I think I have to use that fact that every $q\in\mathbb{Q}$ can be written as $\prod_{\mathcal{P}}$, where $n_p$ is a unique sequence ($n_2$,$n_3$,$\dots$) with domain $\mathbb{Z}$. Here, $\mathcal{P}$ denotes the set of all integers.  Now how can I use this to prove the linear independency? Finding $\int_0^\infty \frac{\cos(ax)-\cos(bx)}{x}dx$ I am practicing calculus section of GRE Math Subject test, and I can't figure out a way to do the following integral: $$\int_0^\infty \frac{\cos (ax) - \cos (bx)}{x}dx.$$  I absolutely have no clue how to do this. Can someone show me the solution explicitly? Thank you. Can I see my active diplomatic deals in Civ 6? When making deals with AI I'm having a hard time assessing if I'm already trading for the resource or not. Is there a way I can see my currently active deals or deal history?  If not, is there a way I can see which resources I am currently importing? About 0.999... = 1 I've just happened to read this  on MO (that of course has been closed) and some of the answers to a similar  on MSE.   I know almost nothing of nonstandard analysis and was asking myself if something like the sentence « $1- 0.999 \dots$ is a nonzero positive infinitesimal» could be easily expressed and proved in nonstandard analysis.  First of all, what is 0.999... ? If we take the usual definition as a series or as a limit of a sequence of rationals, then it will still be a real number and equal to $1$ (I guess by "transfer principle", but please correct me if I'm wrong).  Instead, let's define  $$0.9_N:=\sum_{i=1}^N 9\cdot 10^{-i} $$  where $N\in{}^*\mathbb{N}\setminus\mathbb{N}$ is an infinite nonstandard natural number. This $0.9_N$ is a legitimate element of ${}^*\mathbb{R}$, expressed as $0.$ followed by an infinite number of "$9$" digits.  What can be said about $\epsilon_N:=1-0.9_N$ ? Is there an elementary proof that $\epsilon_N$ is a positive infinitesimal of ${}^*\mathbb{R}$ ? (by "elementary" I mean just order and field axioms and the intuitive facts about infinitesimals, like that for $x$ infinite $1/x$ is infinitesimal etc.; no nonprincipal ultrafilters &amp; C). Can I travel to Kuwait on a visa with old passport number? I have a Kuwait visa, obtained from a hotel in Kuwait, with my old passport number. But as the validity of the present passport is expiring within 6 months, I got a new passport with a new passport number. Can I travel with the same visa or do I have to obtain a new visa with my new passport number?
