Strange discrepency between local and non-local scope

So can you please explain the process of name resolution completely, what is done at static time and what is done at runtime and is this same for class declarations also or is there something different for it

The scope of the name is decided statically. The name is resolved, within that chosen scope, at runtime.

Just as explained in your previous question.

Also relevant:

UnboundLocalError trying to use a variable (supposed to be global) that is (re)assigned (even after first use)

(especially see my answer on this one ^)

Is it possible to modify a variable in python that is in an outer (enclosing), but not global, scope?

How can a name be "unbound" in Python? What code can cause an `UnboundLocalError`?
