modifying what a module defines

[newbieAuggie2019]

if option == "1":
    print("\nOkay, you have decided to work WITHOUT THE EUREKAPRINTER.\n\n")
  
if option == "2":
    import eurekaprinter
    print("\nOkay, you have decided to work WITH THE EUREKAPRINTER.\n\n")
    eurekaprinter.print_eureka()

Hi!

I was not sure what you meant with that (hey, I was so sleepy I didn't notice your line 5, where you import the eurekaprinter module), so when I noticed your line 5, I was not sure if it meant, leaving my line 9 (that's where I imported the module) in or out. I tried both ways (with my line 9 in and with my line 9 out) with your line 5, and both works, so I think your code is neater. Thanks!

All the best,

i ended up using the environment variable technique. it also lets me do it by setting that environment variable as i run the script.

Hi!

That's great! I have no idea about the environment variable technique, but I found your dilemma quite interesting, and I wanted to find out if, with my little knowledge, I could provide some thoughts or maybe a possible solution, even if it is not written with a neat piece of code.

Thanks for bringing in the problem! It was a nice challenge for me!

All the best,
