Python Interpreter Jython - execution of modules

Question

Here's the link to the problem: Python Interpreter in Jython

The following was a potential solution:

    interp.exec("import os.path.abspath(__file__)/printTwice.py)");
    interp.exec("printTwice.print_twice('Adam')");

However it returned an error:

This returned the following error: Exception in thread "main" SyntaxError: ("mismatched input '(' expecting NEWLINE", ('', 1, 22, 'import os.path.abspath(file)/printTwice.py)\n'))

import os.path.abspath(__file__)/printTwice.py) does not make sense. If printTwice.py is the module that you are trying to import, then the import statement should be import printTwice. — mzjn

interp.exec("import printTwice");
interp.exec("printTwice.print_twice('Adam')");

This should work.

Thanks Andreu. I will try this once I figure out how to copy the file into same working directory as Python console. I will let you know if it works
