how to call functions in python into Robot Framework

[Philip]

I have a library file  stringFunction.py and this library file has several functions (def:)

For instance:

Function 1 (def1) calls function2, function3, and function4

    def1():

         z = def2 (x,y)

         t =  def 3(3,2)

         r = def 4(2)

   return z+t+r

    def 2 (a, b)

       .....

    def 3(r,t):

       .....

  

    def 4(r):

       ......

In Robot Framework, I import the stringFunction.py in that test suite

then I call the function1 (def1) in a test case such as 

           ${tz} = stringFunction.def1

Robot Framework always give me the error, "def1" has not declared in a global or undefined etc .

Would you please give me an advice how to call the def1 into Robot Framework while def1 is calling def2, def3, def4

I read that section in the user guide but still don't get it : )

you don't have def in front of def1

def def1():

${tz} = stringFunction.def1

Ugh

Then perhaps reading basic of Python is needed. When I did start with Python, I did read Dive into Python: http://www.diveintopython.net
