Parameters : func – Callable whose scope to restrict. predicate – Predicate to determine whether a global variable is allowed in the scope. Defaults to allow any module. allowed – Names of globals that are allowed to enter the scope. allow_closure – Allow access to non-local variables from the enclosing scope. localscope. mfc # Decorator allowing modules, functions, and classes to enter the local scope.
