   The global dictionary <code class="varname">SD</code> is available to store
   private data between repeated calls to the same function.
   The global dictionary <code class="varname">GD</code> is public data,
   that is available to all Python functions within a session;  use with
   care.<a id="id-1.8.11.11.2.3" class="indexterm"></a>

   Each function gets its own execution environment in the
   Python interpreter, so that global data and function arguments from
   <code class="function">myfunc</code> are not available to
   <code class="function">myfunc2</code>.  The exception is the data in the
   <code class="varname">GD</code> dictionary, as mentioned above.
