__import__('x.y.z') returns <module 'x'>; how do I get z?
---------------------------------------------------------
Try::
__import__('x.y.z').y.z
For more realistic situations, you may have to do something like ::
m = __import__(s)
for i in s.split(".")[1:]:
m = getattr(m, i)
See :mod:`importlib` for a convenience function called
:func:`~importlib.import_module`.
Consider using the convenience function :func:`~importlib.import_module` from
:mod:`importlib` instead::
z = importlib.import_module('x.y.z')
When I edit an imported module and reimport it, the changes don't show up. Why does this happen?
