Association between naming classes and naming their files in python (convention?)

Question

In python (and some other languages) I have learned, that the name of a class should be written in small letters except for the first letter, which should be a capital lette

Answer 1

What you have presented is the standard convention.

Package and Module Names

Modules should have short, all-lowercase names. Underscores can be used in the module name if it improves readability. Python packages should also have short, all-lowercase names, although the use of underscores is discouraged.

Since module names are mapped to file names, and some file systems are case insensitive and truncate long names, it is important that module names be chosen to be fairly short -- this won't be a problem on Unix, but it may be a problem when the code is transported to older Mac or Windows versions, or DOS.

When an extension module written in C or C++ has an accompanying Python module that provides a higher level (e.g. more object oriented) interface, the C/C++ module has a leading underscore (e.g. _socket).

Class Names

Almost without exception, class names use the CapWords convention. Classes for internal use have a leading underscore in addition.

See e.g.

from configparser import ConfigParser

(which, incidentally, was ConfigParser in Python 2.x but changed to be lowercase in 3.x).
