🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Avoid global state modification.
Using global variables can lead to unpredictable side effects and makes the code harder to test and maintain.
Consider using a class to encapsulate the state:
-global_count = 0
-
-def increment_global():
- global global_count # Global variable modification
- global_count += 1
+class Counter:
+ def __init__(self):
+ self._count = 0

+ def increment(self):

counter = Counter()
counter.increment()

Avoid overwriting built-in names.

Add error handling for invalid input.

Implement secure password handling.
