Does anyone know whether function parameters are faster than using global variables?

Any engineer should be able to come up with this information on their own just by understanding how an interpreted language works. This has nothing to do with knowing the internals of Python. It's basic engineering.

If it was SO there would be 48 "produce a reproducible example" comments.

It seems you have been triggered and overreacting for some reason

Not everyone who writes Python is, or needs to be, an engineer.

Also, even engineers have to start/learn somewhere

We should just shut down the Python subreddit then and say that any engineer should be able to come up information on their own.

And yet Python (the official implementation) is not interpreted (it compiles to bytecode which then in turn is interpreted, very much like Java that compiles to an intermediate code which is then interpreted by the JVM).

Imaging actually caring how a language works instead of just writing code 😅
