Using Queue in python

Question

I\'m trying to run the following in Eclipse (using PyDev) and I keep getting error :

q = queue.Queue(maxsize=0) NameError: global name \'queue\' is not defined<

Answer 1

That's because you're using : from queue import *

and then you're trying to use :

queue.Queue(maxsize=0) 

remove the queue part, because from queue import * imports all the attributes to the current namespace. :

Queue(maxsize=0) 

or use import queue instead of from queue import *.
