I create two files: test.py and test1234.py
test.py contains:
import test1234
t = test1234.test()
test1234.py contains:
class test():
def __init__(self):
When put in the same directory, python test.py runs without error.
However, if I create a directory test1234 and put test1234.py and a blank init.py in this directory, python test.py gives the error:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'test'
What do I need to do for test.py to be able to see the test class in test1234.py?

The simplest python module you can create is just a python file. Select a folder where you will be experimenting with modules. Then, create two files in it: fileA.py and fileB.py. Now, we can add a sample function inside fileA, which assumes the following content. print("Hurray!") def sample_function (): print ("Hurray!")
A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements. The file name is the module name with the suffix .py appended. Within a module, the module’s name (as a string) is available as the value of the global variable __name__.
Since the sys.path is a Python list, we can append paths to it. We imported the sys module and appended our “modules” directory to it. So any time you need to import a module in the modules directory within this program, you can simply specify the name and you should be good to start working.
To include a module, it must be installed. Some modules comes already installed with Python, for all the others you need to use pip install. To create a plugin, you need to create two folders with the same name. In the sub-folder, put your module and an empty __init__.py file.
You have to import it through the package, or put it in __init__.py.
import test1234.test1234
t = test1234.test1234.test()
