Hi!

I need help. I don't understand what doc says.

I load module from path testmod/mytest.py using imp.load_source(). My
code is

import imp
testmod = imp.load_source('koko', 'testmod/mytest.py)
print testmod

but i don't understand whatt is first (name) argument for. Docs says
that "The name argument is used to create or access a module object."
But i still don't understand. I cant do this

import imp
testmod = imp.load_source('koko', 'testmod/mytest.py)
print koko

How i can access module object using its name? Is " print sys.modules
['koko'] " only way or am i missing something?
