You're almost there! But in Python, you don't import something from a specific file - you import from a module, and the Python interpreter is free to locate that file anywhere that it can. It might be implemented in C, and be stored in Functions.so (on Unix-like systems) or Functions.dll (on Windows); it might be precompiled and loaded from Functions.pyc; it might come from a zip file, or some other form of special import source. So all you say is: from Functions import humprint and Python does the rest. Yep, that's all the change you need, and your code will most likely work. (I haven't tested it, but it'll probably work.)
