Hi, Just wondering, how would I get a variable out of one function and into another? I'm trying to make a Sudoku puzzle for Python 2.5.1, and in one function I have the finished puzzle (as a matrix) called 'puzzle'. Using the 'copy' module I made a deep copy called 'new_puzzle'. That function is called to create the puzzle and its duplicate, because new_puzzle gets changed so that 85% of the numbers in the matrix get replaced by an empty string. Now, I have another function that allows you to choose the where on the grid to put in the number, but I also need to get new_puzzle in that function to add numbers not only on the Turtle grid, but add them in new_puzzle so I can compare it with the original 'puzzle' variable.
PS: Both functions 'new_sudoku()' and 'play_game()' are called by a function called 'new_game()'. Also, I'm using a Mac, but I'm not sure if that affects the code or not. Thanks in advance.
