Write any four differences between a module and a package in Python.

Question

Accepted Answer

Differences: (i) A module is a single .py file, while a package is a folder containing multiple related modules. (ii) A module is imported directly with import module name, while a package additionally requires an init .py file inside its folder. (iii) A module typically holds a small set of related functions or variables, while a package organizes many modules together for larger programs. (iv) Functions from a module are accessed as module name.function name; functions from a package's module are accessed as module name.function name after importing that module from the package (e.g. from package name import module name).
