Session
Very often we in our daily usage of Python, we face errors related to $PATH, $PYTHONPATH, or other import related errors. A clear understanding of the import system helps us to fix these errors properly, and build extensions on top of the import system.
This talk follows this template to explain what goes on in the background when you execute from spam import ham, or any other import statement. Additionally, it discusses import hooks(PEP-302) and how to use them.
