Hi Python Team, I think the statement "The __init__.py files are required to make Python treat directories containing the file as packages" is wrong in the documentation[1] because it is valid only for Python 2.x version not Python 3.x version.
Even though it is good practice to have this file, it is not mandatory to have in Python 3x. to treat directories as packages. So I think we should correct it.
