OSError: Could not get source code -Pydroid

I was just testing the inspect.getsource to see that it works or not. I wrote the following code in pydroid- import inspect def Test (): print ("Hi") print(inspect.getsource(Test)) --------------------------- It gave a long traceback(I will write in an answer because it is too long to show here)

Then it may be due to the working of pydroid. Maybe when you run a file from pydroid it runs it in a interactive mode instead of running it as a file. As inspect module wil not work as expected in interactive mode. Jan can you help him, I think you are currently using pydroid (if I am not wrong)

Have you saved your file before running it?
