Expect the syntax, why using class variable self.foo would be better (or
more common)? I think the 'global' here is relative, foo is global in
global.py and self.foo is global in Example class. If the global.py is
short and clean enough (didn't have a lot of other class), they are pretty
much the same. Or I missed something?
One difference is that you could have many instances of Example, each
with its own value of 'foo', whereas with a global 'foo' there can
only be one value of 'foo' for the module.
But that is an _instance_ attribute. Which is actually what Windson Yang
made.
A class attribute is bound to the class, not an instance. The
terminology is important.
