#!/usr/bin/python
global astring
astring = "This is a String"

def fun1():
        global astring
        astring = "I modify it in fun1"
def fun2():
        global astring
        astring = "I modify it in fun2"
def main():
        print astring
        fun1()
        print astring
        fun2()
        print astring
if __name__ == '__main__':
        main()
