how can get the module global symbol table from a function or method which it is called?

[ygao]

when a function or method is called,how can get the module global
symbol table from which
it is called,not the module where it is defined(this is easy).
thanks!

I mean the way not passing parameter to the fonction or the method.

You can play with module inspect, or sys._getframe, but they're meant
essentially for *debugging* purposes -- if what you have in mind is not
related to debugging, but rather some hack to design a highly unPythonic
API, I earnestly urge you to reconsider your design intent.
