python refresh/reload

Question

This is a very basic question - but I haven\'t been able to find an answer by searching online.

I am using python to control ArcGIS, and I have a simple python scrip

Answer 1

The cases will be different for different versions of python. Following shows an example of python 3.4 version or above:

hello import hello_world
#Calls hello_world function
hello_world()
HI !!
#Now changes are done and reload option is needed
import importlib
importlib.reload(hello)
hello_world()
How are you?

For earlier python versions like 2.x, use inbuilt reload function as stated above. Better is to use ipython3 as it provides autoreload feature.
