Block scope in Python

When you code in other languages, you will sometimes create a block scope, like this: statement ... statement { statement ... statement } statement ... statement One purpose (of many) is to improve code readability: to show that certain statements form a logical unit or that certain local variables are used only in that block. Is there an idiomatic way of doing the same thing in Python?
No, there is no language support for creating block scope. The following constructs create scope: module class function (incl. lambda) generator expression comprehensions (dict, set, list (in Python 3))
