[Tutor] program flow

Hi,
Gregor example on "magic" funtions has set me thinking. I am wondering
how a program flow really is now. Consider a small example.

#!/usr/bin/python
x = 1
y = 2

def sum1(a,b):
	.....
	.....
	.....
	return a
	return b

print "Magic Functins! Hello World!"

 
z = sum1(x,y)


How does python flow works. It works out 1st 3 lines and then when it
comes to def sum1(a,b): what happens or it jumps that part and goes
directly to "Magic Functins! Hello World!" and then to z = sum1(x,y)
from where it jumps to def sum1(a,b):

What is the flow here?

With warm regards,
-Payal
