do we need to define gloabals in python code example

Example 1: python local variables

'''Local variables are those that are defined in a block '''
a = 1 #This is NOT a local variable, this is a global variable
def add():
  b = 1 #This IS a local variable
  print(b)
add()
#If we tried to print(b) outside of the add() function, we would get an error

Example 2: global variables python

global x
x=1
