Comments on: A guide to Python Namespaces http://bytebaker.com/2008/07/30/python-namespaces/ Computer Science isn't a science and it's not about computers Wed, 23 May 2012 15:01:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Shrutarshi Basu http://bytebaker.com/2008/07/30/python-namespaces/#comment-1651 Sun, 29 Apr 2012 01:02:32 +0000 http://xcomputers.wordpress.com/?p=180#comment-1651 Hi Toby, it’s definitely possible for modules to conflict with each other. Python a list of places in the filesystem to look for module in sys.path. I think it will pick the first one it finds. You should look more into sys.path and module loading.

How can developers make modules with the same name? Since to use a module you use ‘import modulename’, isn’t possible for developers to make modules with the same name by coincidence? I’m thinking of common names like ‘web’ or ‘Image’.
Thanks mate!

Code examples might be a way to improve good writing even more, thanks for sharing your knowledge!

I’d suggest not to use CamelCase in SomeModule since that would be against PEP8. :)

I am a newbie and got so lost on my professor’s explanation of modules and name space (more like a terminology burp). You explained it really well.

Thanks.
