Python module issues

Question

I am running Windows 7 and I can import the built-in modules, but when I save my own script and try to import it in IDLE, I get an error message saying that the module does not exist.

I am using the Python text editor, which can be found by clicking File and New Window from the Python shell. I save it as a .py file in the Module folder that I created in the Python directory. However, whenever I type import module_name in IDLE, it says that the module does not exist.

What am I doing wrong or not doing? I tried importing module_name, import module_name.py, python module_name, python module_name.py

Answer 1

Python uses the PYTHONPATH environment variable to determine the list of folders to look at when importing modules. Most likely your folder is not PYTHONPATH

Answer 2

Try adding the path to the sys.path variable path:

import sys

sys.path.append(pathToModule)
