🔒 Trouble getting module paths to work in python with VSCode.

[sour shuttle]

I'm currently working through "Deep Learning and the Game of Go", and many of the files it has me create start with statements like this:

from dlgo.agent.base import Agent

However, when I attempt to run this in VSCode, it gives me the following error:

(manimations) ➜  Python git:(main) ✗ /Users/billshillito/Documents/Python/.venv/bin/python /Users/billshillito/Documents/Python/dlgo/agent/naive.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/billshillito/Documents/Python/dlgo/agent/naive.py", line 2, in <module>
    from dlgo.agent.base import Agent
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dlgo'

If I change this to just from base import Agent because my naive.py lives in the same folder as base.py. However, I have the hunch I shouldn't be changing the code as it's written in the book.

For reference, I'm using VSCode for Mac (Tahoe 26.1), with the Python extension, and I have a keyboard shortcut that just hits the "Run Python File" button at the top right. This has always worked with other more self-contained programs I write such as Project Euler, but now it's giving me this issue. What should I be doing instead?

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

This is how I have my folder set up that I'm trying to run things from.

And here's a GitHub repository for the files from the book.

If you go to code/dlgo you'll see the things I'm working on. I'm only very early in the book so I haven't written all the code in this yet. (And I'm not importing it with pip install dlgo because that would defeat the purpose of trying to learn how it all works.)
