Answer 1

The syntax for importing your_filename.py, assuming it is in the same directory, is

import your_filename

In your case, it would be

import light

Note the absence of .py.

If your file is in a different directory, you'll need to do:

import sys
sys.path.append('path/to/dir/containing/your_filename.py')
import your_filename

Note that appending to sys.path is dangerous, and should not be done unless you know what you're doing.
