为什么在导入 pdb 时会出现此错误？ “模块”对象没有属性“ascii_letters”

Question

Trying to debug my code, I'm importing the library pdb

import sys
from subprocess import check_call
import pdb

/*functions*/

if __name__== "__main__":
  /* Code */

I'm receiving this error:

  File "reg.py", line 11, in <module>
    import pdb
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/pdb.py", line 9, in <module>
    import cmd
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/cmd.py", line 53, in <module>
    IDENTCHARS = string.ascii_letters + string.digits + '_'
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ascii_letters'

If I create a new python file and I try to run pdb, the same error occur.

Answer 1

One of your files is called string.py . Rename it and make sure to delete any *.pyc files from the script's directory.

It is a very bad practice to use names of built-in modules for your own files for that very reason.

$ echo "import pdb" > string.py
$ python string.py
File "string.py", line 1, in <module>
     import pdb
File "D:\Python37\lib\pdb.py", line 73, in <module>
     import cmd
File "D:\Python37\lib\cmd.py", line 50, in <module>
     IDENTCHARS = string.ascii_letters + string.digits + '_'
AttributeError: module 'string' has no attribute 'ascii_letters'

您的文件夹中有一个“string.py”文件，其中存储了所有代码，只需重命名它然后运行代码，它就可以正常工作；）
