Referencing Data structures from a different file?

in main.py do :

import data_structs

and use the structures like so :

data_structs.your_list.append(1) # or something, and :
data_structs.your_dict['a key'] = 'something'

or :

from data_structs import *

and you can access the structures without prefixing them with the
module-name;

your_list_in_data_structs.append(1)

etc.
