An example, the file-name is conflict with library-name in stdlib or
installed library.
There is a file uuid.py that only has two lines:
import uuid
print(uuid.uuid4())
Run uuid.py, output on Python 3.5.1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\uuid.py", line 1, in <module>
import uuid
File "D:\uuid.py", line 3, in <module>
print(uuid.uuid4())
AttributeError: module 'uuid' has no attribute 'uuid4'
I was spending about an hour to find out what happend when I was a
beginner, and I found I'm not the only one who confused by this problem.
If the prompt can be beginner-friendly a little bit, I think it's a very
good thing.
E.g. says you are importing the file itself, rather than importing other
file or library.
