This is actually a common pattern I see when teaching the language. For example, when a student wants to test out a package like requests many seem to initially want to create a requests.py module. Then they become very confused when they get an AttributeError on requests.get(). -- david stanek web: https://dstanek.com twitter: https://twitter.com/dstanek -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
