Packages and Modules - grkiran2011 - Mar-01-2018

Hi Viewer,

import my_lib
import my_lib.my_sound

When I checked locals() listing, I do not see any difference. How does python know that I have imported a sub-package under my_lib.

Thanks,
Kiran.

A new module instance is stored at address sys.modules['my_lib.my_sound']. The subpackage's code has been run in the module's __dict__ dictionary.
