No module named when importing from another folder

Question

I have the below folder structure for my python project:

./SampleA/
   __init__.py
   company.py
./SampleB/
   __init__.py
   check.py

Now i am trying to import company.py module in my check.py module using the below command:

from SampleA import company

when i run the file i get the below error :

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'SampleA'

How to fix this ?

@rdas - when i append the path , the vscode editor moves the all the import files to the top and sys.path.append is only after import commands. so import company could not import the module. — SunilA, May 22 '20 at 08:08

@RMPR - no it does not work for me. sys.path.append line of code comes after the import statement. So import happens before the path added to the path. — SunilA, May 22 '20 at 08:27
There's no mention to `sys.path.append` in the answer I linked — RMPR, May 22 '20 at 08:31

You're Trying to Import sibling module and not child module. Say You're Folder structure is something like

-SampleB
 - __init__
 - check
 - SampleA

Then it will work. - Right way to import sibling packages follow this link
