Can you please give an example where having a module provide a global variable would work better than any of: 1. providing a module function to change the operation of my module 2. providing a class with a method to change the operation of an instance 3. providing an additional parameter to module functions / instance methods to change operation 4. providing additional module functions / instance methods to perform different operations -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
