import in jupyter notebook to use a method from another file

Question

I am using jupyter notebook. I have 3 jupyter source files written in python in a folder in the same directory: parser, preprocess, and temp. I am trying to import parser and import preprocess in the temp file so that I can use the methods written in those files. Example: there is method named extract in parser file. I want to use that from temp file. How can I do that?

Answer 1

You can use pip for installing packages. Open command propmpt (cmd) and type this below command

pip install preprocess

Answer 2

You can run pip install preprocess from the terminal (or CMD, if you are using Windows). Alternatively, you can run ! pip install preprocess from Jupyter Notebook itself, which will do the same thing. You may need the second one if you are working on Google Colab.
