Error adding one to interval… here is a solution to the problem.
Error adding one to interval
Here is my code :
from sympy.solvers import nsolve
from sympy import Symbol
def solver(I):
return nsolve(x-3*(1-2.73**-x), I, verify=False)
i_min=-51
i_max=100
z=0
x = Symbol('x')
for i in range(i_min,i_max):
y=z
z=solver(i)
if y!=z: continue
print(z)
When I run it, it works as expected. However, if I change i_min
to -52
, it doesn’t work and I get:
UnboundLocalError: local variable ‘x’ referenced before assignment
Combing through other answers to this error, I found that most suggest using global variables. But any global variable declarations I’ve tried so far have not worked.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Here is the entire log:

966 break
--> 967 if not isinstance(x, (list, tuple, ctx.matrix)):
968 xl = [x]
969 else:
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'x' referenced before assignment
Solution
Simply pass x
as an argument
to the solver
function. This way you don’t depend on global
variables
.
The code
to do this might look like this:
from sympy.solvers import nsolve
from sympy import Symbol
def solver(I, x):
return nsolve(x-3*(1-2.73**-x), I, verify=False)
i_min=-51
i_max=100
z=0
x = Symbol('x')
for i in range(i_min,i_max):
y=z
z=solver(i, x)
if y!=z: continue
print(z)
