In Python2, reload is in __builtin__ module (and so available without import at the Python console). Since Python 3.4 this functionality is in the importlib module. https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/importlib.html#importlib.reload reload is a 44 line pure Python function. No need to use it if you don't want to. https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.7/Lib/importlib/__init__.py#L133-L176 I was writing this as Michael Foord's similar (but concise) post came in. -- Jonathan _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
