I have several functions which I would like to store in a different

information about how to call a function if the function code is not
actually in the script itself.
The problem: do I have to cut and paste functions into a script or can
I store them in a directory and call them from a script in another
directory. If the latter is possible, how is this done? Thanks.
After you follow the other suggestions of read about 'module' and
'package'.... If you want a module or package available to *all*
programs (that run with a particular version/installation of Python),
you can put your module or packages in the 'site-packages' directory.
On Windows, this is a subdirectory of pythonxy/lib/
>>> import sys; sys.path
['C:\\Programs\\Python30\\Lib\\idlelib',
'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\python30.zip', 'C:\\Programs\\Python30\\DLLs',
'C:\\Programs\\Python30\\lib', 'C:\\Programs\\Python30\\lib\\plat-win',
'C:\\Programs\\Python30', 'C:\\Programs\\Python30\\lib\\site-packages']
