Code to restart script within the Shell.

I couldn't get the recommended code to work so I decided on using. def start(): print("example") start() start()

import os

if your python version is 3, use importlib.reload(yourModuleName) .

It didn't work. Module name is the name of my file right?(test.py). If so the code didn't work, gave me this error: File "C:\Users\Student\Desktop\Test.py", line 188,in <module> importlib.reload(test.py) NameError: name 'importlib' is not defined. Apologies if I fail to understand some things, I'm quite new to this. Should I be using the directory path in the module?

Just import 'importlib' module first because it is a module like your code, right? Then You can use reload function. Like this: from importlib import reload then, reload(test)

The error has changed to NameError: name 'test' is not defined. What does it mean :/

You must import your code aka module first. reload function just ..well.. reload specific module without restarting interpreter.
