Python NameError when using an imported function

Question

When I import and use a function in a python(2.6.5) program, I get an error:

from Localization import MSGR

title = Localization.MSGR(\"Logfile from Ctf2Rrl.\")
         


        

Answer 1

If you import your method like this, you can user MSGR but not Localization.MSGR :)

If you want to use Localization.MSGR, you can just import Localization

Answer 2

The import statement of the form:

from foo import bar

Doesn't introduce the module name (foo) from which the imports (bar) are taken into the module namespace.

Only the name bar is defined, not the module from which you imported `bar.
