ModuleNotFoundError: What does it mean __main__ is not a package?

  • 6

I am trying to run a module from the console. The structure of my directory is this:

enter image description here

I am trying to run the module p_03_using_bisection_search.py, from the problem_set_02 directory using:

$ python3 p_03_using_bisection_search.py

The code inside p_03_using_bisection_search.pyis:

__author__ = 'm'


from .p_02_paying_debt_off_in_a_year import compute_balance_after


def compute_bounds(balance: float,
                   annual_interest_rate: float) -> (float, float):

    # there is code here, but I have omitted it to save space
    pass


def compute_lowest_payment(balance: float,
                           annual_interest_rate: float) -> float:

    # there is code here, but I have omitted it to save space
    pass    

def main():
    balance = eval(input('Enter the initial balance: '))
    annual_interest_rate = eval(input('Enter the annual interest rate: '))

    lowest_payment = compute_lowest_payment(balance, annual_interest_rate)
    print('Lowest Payment: ' + str(lowest_payment))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I am importing a function that is in p_02_paying_debt_off_in_a_year.py which code is:

__author__ = 'm'


def compute_balance(balance: float,
                    fixed_payment: float,
                    annual_interest_rate: float) -> float:

    # this is code that has been omitted
    pass


def compute_balance_after(balance: float,
                          fixed_payment: float,
                          annual_interest_rate: float,
                          months: int=12) -> float:

    # Omitted code
    pass


def compute_fixed_monthly_payment(balance: float,
                                  annual_interest_rate: float) -> float:

    # omitted code
    pass


def main():
    balance = eval(input('Enter the initial balance: '))
    annual_interest_rate = eval(
        input('Enter the annual interest rate as a decimal: '))
    lowest_payment = compute_fixed_monthly_payment(balance,
                                                   annual_interest_rate)
    print('Lowest Payment: ' + str(lowest_payment))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I am getting the following error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '__main__.p_02_paying_debt_off_in_a_year'; '__main__' is not a package

I have no idea how to solve this issue. I have tried adding a __init__.py file, but it is still not working.

      Simply remove the dot for the relative import and do:

      from p_02_paying_debt_off_in_a_year import compute_balance_after
