Detailed explanation of the from..import absolute import statement in Python
Relative or absolute import
More complex parts have been implemented since python2.5: importing a module can specify the use of absolute or package-relative imports. The plan is to move to the detail of making absolute imports the default in other versions of Python.
Let's assume you have a package directory like this:
pkg/ pkg/__init__.py pkg/main.py pkg/string.py
The above defines a package called pkg that contains two submodules: pkg.main and pkg.string. Considering the code in 'main.py', what will happen if we execute the statement import string in python2.4 or earlier? It will query the package directory to perform a relative import, find pkg/string.py, and import the contents of the file as the pkg.string module. The boundary name of this module is the namespace of 'string' in the pkg.main module.
This is great if pkg.string is what you want. But what if all you want is python’s basic string module?
There is no clear way to ignore pkg.string and find the underlying module; normally you have to look at the contents of sys.modules, which is a little unclear. Holger Krekel's py.std package provides a neat way to perform imports from the base library, import py;py.std.string.jion(), but that package is not available during the Python installation process.
Reading the code is also not clear enough in terms of relative imports, because readers may confuse the use of string and pkg.string modules. Python users can immediately tell that there are different names between the base library and their own package modules, but you cannot protect your own submodule names in a new version of Python.
From python2.5, you can turn on the import behavior and go directly to absolute import using from __future__ import absolute_import . This absolute import behavior will become a default detail in future versions of Python. Once absolute imports are defaulted, import string will always look for the base library. It is recommended that users use absolute imports as much as possible, so it is appropriate to use from pkg import string in your code. Required in python2.* versions:
from __future__ import absolute_import
Example 1:
Example: Code in module A.B.C:
from . import D # 导入A.B.D from .. import E # 导入A.E from ..F import G # 导入A.F.G,.. 和 F是连着的,中间没有空格
. represents the current directory, .. represents the upper directory, and ... represents the upper directory.
Example 2:
Directory structure:
package/ __init__.py subpackage1/ __init__.py moduleX.py moduleY.py subpackage2/ __init__.py moduleZ.py moduleA.py
You can import module in subpackage1/moduleX.py or subpackage1/__init__.py like this:
from .moduleY import spam from .moduleY import spam as ham from . import moduleY from ..subpackage1 import moduleY from ..subpackage2.moduleZ import eggs from ..moduleA import foo from ...package import bar from ...sys import path
Note that from ...sys import path is legal, but not recommended. Just directly from sys import path.

PHP is mainly procedural programming, but also supports object-oriented programming (OOP); Python supports a variety of paradigms, including OOP, functional and procedural programming. PHP is suitable for web development, and Python is suitable for a variety of applications such as data analysis and machine learning.

PHP is suitable for web development and rapid prototyping, and Python is suitable for data science and machine learning. 1.PHP is used for dynamic web development, with simple syntax and suitable for rapid development. 2. Python has concise syntax, is suitable for multiple fields, and has a strong library ecosystem.

PHP originated in 1994 and was developed by RasmusLerdorf. It was originally used to track website visitors and gradually evolved into a server-side scripting language and was widely used in web development. Python was developed by Guidovan Rossum in the late 1980s and was first released in 1991. It emphasizes code readability and simplicity, and is suitable for scientific computing, data analysis and other fields.

Python is more suitable for beginners, with a smooth learning curve and concise syntax; JavaScript is suitable for front-end development, with a steep learning curve and flexible syntax. 1. Python syntax is intuitive and suitable for data science and back-end development. 2. JavaScript is flexible and widely used in front-end and server-side programming.

To run Python code in Sublime Text, you need to install the Python plug-in first, then create a .py file and write the code, and finally press Ctrl B to run the code, and the output will be displayed in the console.

Writing code in Visual Studio Code (VSCode) is simple and easy to use. Just install VSCode, create a project, select a language, create a file, write code, save and run it. The advantages of VSCode include cross-platform, free and open source, powerful features, rich extensions, and lightweight and fast.

Golang is better than Python in terms of performance and scalability. 1) Golang's compilation-type characteristics and efficient concurrency model make it perform well in high concurrency scenarios. 2) Python, as an interpreted language, executes slowly, but can optimize performance through tools such as Cython.

VS Code can be used to write Python and provides many features that make it an ideal tool for developing Python applications. It allows users to: install Python extensions to get functions such as code completion, syntax highlighting, and debugging. Use the debugger to track code step by step, find and fix errors. Integrate Git for version control. Use code formatting tools to maintain code consistency. Use the Linting tool to spot potential problems ahead of time.
