Python creating objects in loop

Question

I know this question has been posted alot, however I cannot get my code to work. I have 2 classes, Main and PlayerLogic. I want to create multiple PlayerLogic objects within a loop, however I am getting this error "TypeError: 'module' object is not callable"

EDIT: I didnt mention that the classes are in different files with the exact same name of the class

class Main:

    import PlayerLogic


    numPlayers = int(input("How many player would you like? [excluding you]"))

    players = []
    for i in range(numPlayers):
        players.append(PlayerLogic(i))


class PlayerLogic:

    import random


    def __init__(self,name):
        self.name = str(name)

Is PlayerLogic in its own file? You may have to call it like players.append(PlayerLogic.PlayerLogic(i)) — Hugh Bothwell

import PlayerLogic is importing PlayerLogic.py. To import the class, try from PlayerLogic import PlayerLogic — asongtoruin

Also - don't use capital letters in the name of a module! Call the module playerlogic and the class PlayerLogic. — Hugh Bothwell

Your import is just importing the module not the PlayerLogic class.

You could do:

from PlayerLogic import PlayerLogic

Or keep the import as it is but then inside the loop use:

players.append(PlayerLogic.PlayerLogic(i))
