Python: Module Error with pprint, no error with print

Question

So I have this function that creates a dictionary called a() and takes parameters params. I want to print that dictionary, so I used pprint:

dict=a(params)
pprint(dict)

pprint gives me this error:

TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

but print works fine!

Answer 1

How did you import pprint? If you didn't specify what to import from pprint you need to use the module name when calling.

import pprint
pprint.pprint(...)

Or you can import a specific method.

from pprint import pprint
pprint(...)
