Thats a good pointer to what is going on. Thank you Bas.
I am familiar with error such as
x=1
def foo():
x = 2
def erm():
print(x)
x=3
erm()
foo()
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'x' referenced before assignment.
It seems a bit different for classes (below), as it jumps out to get the
value from the global name space, where it didn't for functions (above).
x=1
def foo():
x = 2
class erm():
print(x)
x = 3
foo() # This evaluates == 1
But you certainly have explained why "NameError: name 'third' is not
defined" occurs.
