For example, imagine this code runs at function scope: # take a snapshot a = locals() # it's a snapshot, so it doesn't include the new variable assert "a" not in a # take another snapshot b = locals() # now our first "snapshot" has changed assert "a" in a Overall I'm happy with the PEP, but I'm still a bit uneasy about whether we've gotten the details of this "dynamicity" exactly right, esp. since the PEP promotes them from implementation detail to language features.
