It does not run here in terminal.
And it certainly it would give you more errors if you run it in the order you wrote, that is the call to the handler before the handler.
However, you are right. I did not understand the original question.

You are getting this message because "a" is not defined in the handler.
If you want to get rid of this message, then add
global a
to the top of your handler.

You are getting this message because "a" is only used once in this script.
In its definition. Therefore, it is telling you may be you don't really need this "a" variable.
Actually we could point out to Emmanuel that, if there is a global a, then this message should not show up.
