Can't import fit in the latest commit about gpfit HOT 7 CLOSED

it looks like you were in the gpfit folder? Shouldn't you import gpfit.fit?

poop. I need a lesson in libraries and importing instead. But why did it give the error above? I'm still confused about that; shouldn't it have failed outright?

Not if you were in the gpfit folder, or any folder with a file called fit.py

I am stupid... so please explain to me why I need to say import gpfit.fit instead of just import fit within the folder. Because I understand using from fit import fit, but wouldn't import fit just suffice?

in Python 2, import <filename in current directory> will import that file directly, not as part of its package, so you get the non-package error. Better to just never work directly in the gpfit repository unless you're actually editing gpfit code...

K. Note taken, and lesson in imports learned. Thanks Ned, closing!
