How to use your own written functions or routines when code in python??
Follow below steps for auto import -
1. Create a folder where you can put all reusable code/function/routines files
2. Let's say it is "routines"
3. Now suppose, you have written all your functions and save it in a file myfunc.py and saved it in routines folder
4. Add routines folder path to your windows path or linux path
for linux:
Edit your .bash_profile (typically towards the end)to the following line
export PYTHON_PATH=$PYTHON_PATH:'/path/to/folder/' #if you have this variable
export PATH=$PATH:'/path/to/folder/' #else use this line
where you put the correct path in the appropriate location
Follow below steps for manual import -
Use below python code to manually import the module file
How to use your function in your code:-
1. import that module into your python script session with a command like
import myfunc
2. for using a function "my_sqrt" from your library myfunc
x = myfunc.my_sqrt(val)
3. you can create alias for your library also
import myfunc as mf
x = mf.my_sqrt(val)
If want to import a particular peice from library, use as
from myfunc import my_sqrt
x = my_sqrt(val)
this is tedious if you have to import multiple so use as
from myfunc import *
x = my_sqrt(val)
But, remember if you are import multiple library and they having same function name.
While using, you need to call them as step 2
