Actually, I've tried both of these, and I get (different) errors in both
cases:
In [1]: from mymath import *
In [2]: reload(mymath)
NameError: name 'mymath' is not defined
In [3]: reload('mymath')
TypeError: reload() argument must be module
Please don't top post :o)
1/ Do not use the 'from <module> import *' form, unless you don't have
any other choice, it will set in your namespace an undefined number of
symbols, you may get some name collisions which usually lead to very
nasty bugs.
import mymath
reload(mymath)
will do the trick.
If you are of those lazy coders you can write
import mymath as mm
reload(mm)
mm.aFunction()
If you are using a few functions and don't what to prefix them with the
module name you can also write
import mymath
from mymath import func1, func2, func3
# reload the functions
reload(mymath)
func1 = mymath.func1
func2 = mymath.func2
func3 = mymath.func3
