ImportError: Cannot import name 'SortedStringTrie'

Question

from pytrie import SortedStringTrie as trie
t = trie(yuva=0,yuvaka=1,yuvaraaja=2,yuvati=3,varadi=4,varadigaara=5)
x = t.keys(prefix='yu')
print (x)

When this code is executed following error is shown

"ImportError: Cannot import name 'SortedStringTrie' ".

@JustDucky pytrie is a pure Python implementation, OP might name his script as `pytrie.py` — Haifeng Zhang, Mar 29 '16 at 01:50
@TadhgMcDonald-Jensen Yes it was. it is not working even if changed it to different name. — Soty, Mar 29 '16 at 02:15
did you delete the `.pyc` file? it may be located in a `__pycache__` folder. — Tadhg McDonald-Jensen, Mar 29 '16 at 02:16
@TadhgMcDonald-Jensen There was one more file with same name which i didn't see before. Now it works. — Soty, Mar 29 '16 at 02:22

please run help('modules') under your python to check whether pytrie has been installed

or run pip if you'd installed pip

if the module was not installed the error would say `ImportError: No module named 'pytrie'`, but since the OP called their script `pytrie.py` they ended up importing their own file instead of the installed module – Tadhg McDonald-Jensen Mar 29 '16 at 02:18
