Excuse me for the incomplete information on previous posts.
Here is the message when I run it on Canopy (module1.py and module2.py
are in the current folder):
Welcome to Canopy's interactive data-analysis environment!

Type '?' for more information.
I don't have any experience with "Canopy", but it looks to me like it is
providing you with an interactive Python environment.
In [1]: pydoc module1
File "<ipython-input-1-cebe02de9045>", line 1
pydoc module1

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
As this is an interactive Python environment, then Python syntax is
required. Remember what "help(pydoc)" told you:
"""
In the Python interpreter, do "from pydoc import help" to provide online
help. Calling help(thing) on a Python object documents the object.
"""
So, instead of "pydoc module1" (which is not good Python syntax), do
what the help document tells you to do within a Python interpreter:
import module1
pydoc.help(module1)
import module2
pydoc.help(module2)
Does that work better?
E.
