Localscopeā€“Limit scope of Python functions for reproducible execution

Viewed 15
The post discusses the Localscope library, which helps limit the scope of Python functions to improve reproducibility in coding environments. It highlights potential uses, such as implementing coeffects similar to those in the Hack programming language, allowing for better control over what functions can access (e.g., preventing file writes by restricting access to certain commands). While the implementation looks promising, some commenters suggest that the need for such a library indicates a need for better coding practices. They argue that addressing scope and variable management directly within code may reduce reliance on external libraries, even if they provide immediate solutions.
