[Tutor] Getting started with Python

[Hansen, Mike]

Isn't it
 
import file
 
not
 
import file.py
 
or has that changed in recent versions?

			You need to place a "__init__.py" file in a
directory you want to reference in an import statement.
			
			I don't believe the content of the file is
important but you can place code in the file that will affect how files
are imported.
			
			The import syntax is a such. 


			import directory1.directory2.file.py
			
			
			Place "__init__.py" in both "directory1" and
"directory2"
			
			Good luck simon.

				I can't.
				
				
				>>> import file.py
				
				
				is all very well if the interpreter
knows where file.py is.
				
				
				I want to do this :
				
				>>> import
/directory1/directory2/file.py
				
				
				Is this not possible ?
