If it's static analysis, I'd quietly ignore those sorts of cases.
Anything can be changed any time, including stuff that's completely
unrelated to what you're working on.
Now, if the OP just wants to know what names get referenced (without
distinguishing reads from writes), that's quite possible, and in fact
easy - if you're willing to analyze a whole function instead of a
single statement.
>>> def foo():
x=y+1
>>> foo.__code__.co_varnames
('x',)
>>> foo.__code__.co_names
('y',)
The first one is the ones that get assigned to (not quite the same as
"written to"), the second is ones that don't. Well, more or less. In
simple cases.
