Why You Shouldn't Use the Global Keyword in Python

In this Python lesson, I'll be going over why you should never use the 'global' keyword in your code.

I'll be demystifying the global keyword and explaining why you shouldn't use the global keyword in Python and why it's generally recommended you do not use it.
