I want to add 1 to variable in another function which happens to be within that function. This is my code and I've obviously tried with and without the global:

async def start():
    variable = 0
    async def begin():
        #global variable
        variable += 1
    await begin()

I would need a solution that does not involve function arguments or global variables out of the start() function.

I'm not familiar with using `async` but did you try `nonlocal` instead of `global`? – Tomerikoo Jun 15 '22 at 14:16
`I would need a solution that does not involve function arguments` why tho – SuperStew Jun 15 '22 at 14:17
It's a callback function. – Tacabeu Jun 15 '22 at 14:17
No Tomerikoo I haven't. Will now research that, thank you. – Tacabeu Jun 15 '22 at 14:18

It seems like a great solution. Didn't know nonlocal was a thing. Thank you for helping me and teaching me this. – Tacabeu Jun 15 '22 at 14:21
