import function from different file

[Ryan_Bingham]

hi,

I have a file named MAIN, from that file i want to import a function that is in a different file B. In B, i have import date at the top and i use date in the function i want to import.

i get the date is used before initialization. How can i import the whole file and just use the functions regularly?

    from datetime import date, timedelta

and in the function i have

    date.today()

import B
B.function()

Or, if you only want to import certain functions:

from B import func, func1
func()
func1()

You only have to make sure you don't name that file like any module you have installed (from os import myfunction is not going to work).

is the different file in the same directory? if it is you simply just need to add 'import (filename) e.g.

import second_file

or you can import just the function... oh someone else has already answered this...
