[Tutor] counting function calls

[marcus lütolf]

Dear experts, Mats
I have found the solution, I put the counting variable at the wrong place: 

> #!/usr/bin/python3
> import sys, time
> import RPi.GPIO as gpio
> 
> gpio.setmode(gpio.BOARD)
> gpio.setup(23, gpio.IN)
> count = 0
> def mein_callback(pin):
>     count += 1
>     print('PIR 1 aktiviert', count)
>     return
> 
> try:
       count = 0
>     gpio.add_event_detect(23, gpio.RISING, callback = mein_callback)
>     while True:
>         time.sleep(2)
           count += 1
> except KeyboardInterrupt:
>     print('PIR deaktiviert')

Marcus.

Yes, what Python does here may be surprising at first: if you only
read-access a global variable in a local (function in this case) scope, it
gives you the value just fine.  If you however try to save something to a
global variable what happens is it creates a local variable,
*unless* you have previously informed Python you mean the global one, by
using the global statement as Alan listed. The specific error you see is
because in order to increment 'count' (which Python has already figured out
has to be local because it will be assigned to) you have to read the
existing value first, but there is no existing value in the local scope.

The Python programming FAQ has a short explanation of why this might be so:

and-global-variables-in-python
