Hello, continuing coders! Brace yourself for another round of exciting Python magic! Today, we’re diving into **‘Modules’ **and ‘Packages’. These tools help us write and organize our code better, thus making it more understandable and reusable. Sounds neat, right? In Python, a module is a file containing Python definitions and statements, while a package is a way of organizing related modules into a single directory hierarchy. Consider this basic module:
**my_module. py**
def say_hello(name):
print(f'Hello, {name}!')
You can use this module in another script like this:
**main. py**
import my_module
my_module. say_hello('Pythonista')
Running `main. py` will output "Hello, Pythonista!"
Exercise
- Create a module that contains a function to calculate the area of a circle.
- Import this module in another script and use it.
Conclusion
And there you have it! You’ve just discovered yet another Python feature! You’ve begun to organize your code better by building and utilizing modules and packages. This not only makes your code more reusable but also makes it easier to read. So, continue coding and exploring! Remember that every line of code you write puts you closer to becoming a Python master. Continue your efforts!
