python - NameError: name 'reload' is not defined

Question

I'm using python 3.2.2. When I write a simple program, I meet the problem.

>>> reload(recommendations)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in <module>
    reload(recommendations)
NameError: name 'reload' is not defined

How should I do it?

Answer 1

You probably wanted importlib.reload().

from importlib import reload

In Python 2.x, this was a builtin, but in 3.x, it's in the importlib module.

Note that using reload() outside of the interpreter is generally unnecessary, what were you trying to do here?
