Hi Filip,
In Python the standard patten for "declaring" variables is just to assign to
them as they are needed. If you want the effect of a declaration as you
would do in C, you can just define the variable and initialize it to 0 or
None. (Or {} for a new dictionary, or [] for a new list.)
eg,
def collaterecs():
recordscount = 0
recordlist = []
...
return recordlist
