The fix is to add a "local" declaration in "fun":
local x = 25
for example. If you want the one from the outer scope, then use, perhaps,
outer x = 25
One really screwy situation with Python is
x = 23
def f():
x = 25
def g():
x += 3
g obviously is supposed to inherit x from the surrounding scope, but
there's no way for g to actually change x.
