PACKAGES .

Importing a Python Package
To use a package in Python, you need to:
• Ensure the package is installed (using pip for external packages).
• Use the import statement in your script.
Standard Import Example:
python
import math # Imports the standard math package
result = math.sqrt(16)
For user-created packages or subpackages:
python
from mypackage.mymodule import myfunction
Pseudocode:
• Install the package, if external.
• Use import package_name or from package.module import item.

Importing a Less Common Package (PrettyTable)

Step 1: Install PrettyTable
bash

pip install prettytable

Step 2: Import and Use
python

from prettytable import PrettyTable

READ THE DOCUMENT AND GENRATE BELOW OUTPUT.
