Try help(globals()) at the interpreter prompt.  

Help on built-in function globals in module builtins:

globals(...)
    globals() -> dictionary
    
    Return the dictionary containing the current scope's global variables.

So once you have a dictionary, you can use get() to fetch values which
might or not be present, and supply the default in case they aren't.

I showed you the only 3 ways I know of, and none of them is as readable
as just setting the defaults in the standard way.

I only showed you those in order to show you how unreadable it would be.
