| 11 | | In my experience, most Python programmers are not aware that, technically speaking, a package ''is'' a special type of module. This is due principally to the fact that most of the relevant language in the Python documentation implies that the term "modules" does not include packages. Earlier in the tutorial this package is referred to as a "package," not a "module," and there is no reason not to use the more specific term here, preventing unnecessary confusion. |
