use globals in python – Himanshu Poddar Aug 18 '22 at 14:22

You simply cannot do that. `hi`, as a local variable, only exists during a call to `function1()`; the function doesn't do anything during that time to make the variable available elsewhere (such as returning it, or assigning it to a global variable), so the value simply vanishes. – jasonharper Aug 18 '22 at 14:23
