First of all, do not use "." in module names, even in examples. The "." is an operator in python, so it's really confusing to read -- "import file.1" if interpreted literally, is nonsense. At least I hope it is. > My Question is: How to import the files from the > different directory to the current file?. Typically you will need to modify sys.path to determine what's on the "PYTHONPATH". Of course, you can also modify the PYTHONPATH environment variable to add new stuff to the path.
