Hi
I am running Python 2.7 on Windows 8.1. Today I installed path.py
using easy_install:
easy_install path.py
The example code that I've seen imports path.py as follows:
from path import path
I am fairly new to Python and have a few questions about this:
1) Why is 'from path' required here?
The syntax:
from <module> import <name>
will import the name <name> from the module <module>, so:
from path import path
will import the name 'path' (a class) from the module 'path'.
2) I am using Microsoft's PTVS IDE to develop my code. It is not
displaying code completion for path.py (it works for the standard
libraries). How would I tell PTVS about path.py?
Perhaps I just need to know where path.py is as I can't find it in my
filesystem.
Try:
import path
print path.__file__
