Hi Nico,

The global thing was confusing for me originally, mainly because the keyword global suggests (to me at least) that the variable is being declared/instantiated as global, whereas with Python the variable is automatically global without that syntax when it's not in a function, it's just that you need the global keyword to get write access to it. I wish they'd used a different keyword, like (say) use or unlock perhaps. Anyway, it's quite neat, but the syntax is definitely confusing initially.

Good point on the global variable issue with Python.

Logically it makes sense, but us older programmers miss the ability to reach out and touch a variable as needed.
