Chaps I am going through what is apparently a #1 problem for python novice. I have been through some tutorials but I really can t get it works. Here is the code : 

import time from settings import * from actif_class import * from get_settings import * from dataython import * from spreadython import * from tankython import * if __name__ == "__main__": t0 = time.clock() settings = get_settings() tickers = get_data_mp(settings) list_spreads = get_list_spread(tickers,settings) list_spreads_tank = tanking(list_spreads,settings) spread_traitable = obtention_spreads_traitables(list_spreads_tank,settings) print 'done. Timing',time.clock()-t0,'seconds'

and here is the stack :

 ImportError: No module named datayhton

Even though the module DOES exist and is in the same folder as every other modules. It is able to see the get_settings one but not dataython. I ve tried on another machine but still got the same trouble.

I tried to go through import sys, sys.path.append but I might have done something wrong because it still doesnt work.

Any help would be much appreciated.

EDIT : still doesnt work when I write this on top of my code :

import time import sys sys.path.append("/path/to/dataython")

  • you have to download and install this package datayhton and then you can import it. Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 4:26
  • how would I dl and install something I wrote ? Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 4:32
  • If it's not built in package you need to download and install it, you can use pip or just download it from the Internet Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 4:33
  • I might miss your point here but datayhton is not a built in package but a module I ve written. Therefore I dnt really see how I coul dl it from the internet Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 4:36

    You spell dataython in some places but datayhton in the code, swapping the h and t. Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 4:59

Ok. I got it now. Not a no brainer so here is the amended code :

import time import sys sys.path.append("path/to/your/file") import your_file

the mistake I was doing was keep writing : from your_file import *
