There is likely a very hackish way to do it involving bytecode
disassembly, but it's ill-advised. Further, what if the variable isn't
a constant, as `y` is in the following example?:
   def foo(self, x):
       y = x + 3
What would you expect to get for y's value?


Why would you want such an ability in the first place? I suspect that
if you explained your use-case/situation, someone could offer a much
better alternative approach.

Cheers,
Chris
