how to add something to a global variable code example

Example 1: python access global variable

globvar = 0

def set_globvar_to_one():
    global globvar    # Needed to modify global copy of globvar
    globvar = 1

def print_globvar():
    print(globvar)     # No need for global declaration to read value of globvar

set_globvar_to_one()
print_globvar()       # Prints 1

Example 2: global python

"""
USING GLOBALS ARE A BAD IDEA, THE BEST WAY TO PERFORM AN ACTION WHICH NEEDS GLOBALS WOULD 
BE TO USE RETURN STATEMENTS. GLOBALS SHOULD ONLY EVER BE USED IN RARE OCCASIONS WHEN YOU
NEED THEM
"""

# allows you to modify a variable outside its class or function

EXAMPLE:
  
def test_function():
  global x
  x = 10

test_function()
print(f"x is equal to {x}") # returns x is equal to 10
