What are modules?

A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements. Modules can define functions, classes, and variables that you can reference in other Python .py files or via the Python command line interpreter.

In Python, modules are accessed by using the import statement. When you do this, you execute the code of the module, keeping the scopes of the definitions so that your current file(s) can make use of these.
