import one piece of code into another piece of code

I wrote a piece of code called quadForm.py that solves a quadratic formula. I am trying to place that code into another file where it will output the values. I am new to python and not sure on how to do this. Thanks for the help!

You may use the python import statement. Let us assume you are using a function solve() defined in quadForm.py in another file main.py in the same directory. Then in main.py you would write the following

import quadForm

quadForm.solve()

or if you want to call the function solve directly without using the quadForm prefix

from quadForm import solve

solve()

All you need to do is put the the files in the same directory and add,

from quadForm import *

to the other file. Then you can use any function that you defined in quadForm.py (using def) in the other file.
