[issue19499] "import this" is cached in sys.modules

[Eric Snow]

Eric Snow added the comment:

+0 to just doing a reload.  At the point you show someone "import this", it may be premature to be explaining reloading to them.  Python is great because you usually don't have to hand-wave through some concepts in order to explain others. [1]

Also, under Python 3 you have to import reload() separately:

from imp import reload
reload(this)
