Thank you Walter. I got it and it works! :) I have a follow-up question, though. I had previously already inspected "ns.__dict__" with the "dir()" function, but couldn't (and can not) see my parameters neither with "dir(ns.__dict__)" nor with "dir(ns.__dict__.items)". This is clearly an indication that I misunderstand what the __dict__ is and how it works. Yet if I do a dir() on an instance of an object, it does work as expected, returning all attributes of that object. Could you (on anybody else!) help me undertand what I fail to grasp? Thank you!
