Getting Import error in Python program

[atinesh922]

On running main.py. I'm getting the following error

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dir2'

Python files

main.py

import dir1

__init__.py

import dir2

are organized as follows

src
 |
 +-- main.py
 |
 +-- dir1
       |
       +-- __init__.py
       |
       +-- dir2

Can anybody tell why the code in __init__.py cannot recognize directory dir2

If dir2 is a directory it mas have __init__.py in it. The file may be empty.

If dir2 is a directory it mas have __init__.py in it. The file may be empty.

I tried putting empty __init__.py file, getting same error.

Hello!
The dir2.py must be in the same directory as main.py. Or you have to add the path to it in the PYTHONPATH environment variable.

import dir1.dir2.

The dir2.py must be in the same directory as main.py.

It doesn't have to be in the same directory, if there is a properly formatted __init__.py file in the package root.
