[Python]import syntax

Recently, I’ve committed Python project repositories. Then, I faced an issue which happened by import syntax.

Below article helped me to understand the import further in Python 2 and 3.

When a module is imported, Python runs all of the code in the module file. When a package is imported, Python runs all of the code in the package’s init__.py file, if such a file exists. All of the objects defined in the module or the package’s __init.py file are made available to the importer.

and

– An __init__.py file has 2 functions.
convert a folder of scripts into an importable package of modules (before Python 3.3)
– run package initialization code

I thought the __init__.py  was just an initialization. But the file made the package importable.
