The exceptions are the ones built-in to Python. In fact modules have a __file__ attribute that tells you where it came from; try typing factor30.__file__ Kent ******* >>> import factor30 >>> factor30._file_ Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in -toplevel- factor30._file_ AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_file_' >>> >>> factor30.__file__ 'c:\\math\\factoring\\factor30.py' >>> Ok. Now I understand it. The module is named factor30. The file is named factor30.py I presume that if I created another library in the same directory in a file named factor31.py that it would create a module named factor31. ???
