Hello Wesley,
thanks for your reply. I was surprised about the limited information
too. Sadly (?), I can't reproduce the error any more...

I just wrote this message, but after restarting ipython all worked fine.
How is it to be explained that I first had a namespace error which, after a
restart (and not merely a new "run Sande_celsius-main.py"), went away? I
mean, surely the namespace should not be impacted by ipython at all!?
:
# file: Sande_celsius-main.py
from Sande_my_module import c_to_f
celsius = float(raw_input("Enter a temperature in Celsius: "))
fahrenheit = c_to_f(celsius)
print "That's ", fahrenheit, " degrees Fahrenheit"
# this is the file Sande_my_module.py
# we're going to use it in another program
def c_to_f(celsius):
fahrenheit = celsius * 9.0 / 5 + 32
return fahrenheit
When I run Sande_celsius-main.py, I get the following error:
NameError: global name 'celsius' is not defined
WARNING: Failure executing file:<Sande_celsius-main.py>
Python interpreters including the standard one or IPython should tell
you a lot more than that. how are you executing this code? would it be
possible to do so from the command-line? you should get a more verbose
error message that you can post here.
best regards,
