What's the bad magic number error?

Question

What\'s the \"Bad magic number\" ImportError in python, and how do I fix it?

The only thing I can find online suggests this is caused by compiling a .py -> .pyc file

Answer 1

This is much more efficent than above.

find {directory-of-.pyc-files} -name "*.pyc" -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf

where {directory-of-.pyc-files} is the directory that contains the compiled python files.
