That’s not how import works - you don’t import strings (what you’ve done there is assign some string file path to RB then called import on that).
You call import on a module name that must be discoverable within your python path. The module name is makeRobotBug, like you say, so that’s what you want to import ( and you can add “as RB” to assign it to RB afterwards). Then you just need to make sure it’s folder is in your python path (test this out by using sys.path.append ) On Sat, 21 Oct 2017 at 12:06 pm, jettam <[email protected]> wrote: > I am trying to import this module but its not working.
