[ Python 常見問題 ] Use of python getattr/setattr for current function

 Source From Here

Question
Is it possible to use getattr/setattr to access a variable in a class function?

Example below. Say I have a class A, that has two methods, func1 and func2 both of which define a variable count of a different type. Is there a way to use getattr in func2 to access the local variable count?

In reality, I have quite a few variables in func2 (that are also defined differently in func1) that I want to loop through using getattr and I'm looking to shorten up my code a bit by using a loop through the variable names.

1. class A(object):  
2.   
3.    def __init__(self):  
4.       pass  
5.   
6.    def func1(self):  
7.         count = {"A": 1, "B":2}  
8.   
9.    def func2(self):  
10.         count = [1, 2]  
11.         mean = [10, 20]  
12.         for attr in ("count", "mean"):  
13.            xattr = getattr(self, attr)   ! What do I put in here in place of "self"?  
14.            xattr.append(99)  

HowTo

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. import sys  
2.   
3. getattr(sys.modules[__name__], attr)  

you can also look up and update the dict returned by globals() directly, ex. this is roughly equivalent to the getattr() above:

1. globals()[attr]
