This is how I learnt to use the interpreter and the Error messages it
shows, to debug my code.
# Run your script.
# The interpreter barks, saying -
NameError: global name 'readBook' is not defined
# "But, I did define readBook, didn't I?", you wonder. Go back and
confirm. You find a readBook. You are confused.
# You run the script again, but the interpreter barks again! You are
even more confused.
# You re-read the error message. NameError: global name 'readBook' is
not defined. You look back at the code more carefully, to find that
indeed 'readBook' has not been defined. It was 'readbook' that was
defined.
readbook is not the same as readBook. Python is case sensitive.
