Puzzling import issue that I have no idea how to solvr

[Pedroski55]

I would just check the paths first, to see if what you seek is actually in the path you are using.

I don't use Windoze so I am not familiar with the paths.

I keep my home-made modules in '/home/pedro/myPython/myModules'

from pathlib import Path
 
# set starting directory
# winpath = Path("C:\Correlator")
path2modules = Path('/home/pedro/myPython/myModules')
# if you have various subdirectories, you can loop through them
# I don't have subdirectories!
dirs = [d for d in path2modules.iterdir() if d.is_dir()]
# this to find all files in your path
path2modules = Path('/home/pedro/myPython/myModules') 
filelist = [filename for filename in path2modules.iterdir() if filename.is_file()]
for filename in filelist:
    print(f"\nfilename: {filename.name}")
    print(f"file suffix: {filename.suffix}")
    print(f"full path: {filename.resolve()}")
    print(f"filepath parts: {filename.parts}")

Example output:

Output:
filename: makeWebpage.py
file suffix: .py
full path: /home/pedro/myPython/myModules/makeWebpage.py
filepath parts: ('/', 'home', 'pedro', 'myPython', 'myModules', 'makeWebpage.py')

I see sometimes people use r' before the path. Not sure why. In case of funny characters or spaces perhaps.

dest = r'C:\Test'

Or you can specifically search for any particular file and, if found, print its full path.
