and open file __init__.py

My C:\Program Files\Python310\lib\collections\__init__.py from section didn't seem to have the required entries.

To resolve this, I added the following to that file:

from collections.abc import Mapping
from collections.abc import MutableMapping
from collections.abc import Sequence

Additionally my project .py file still had the legacy code line import collections which I replaced with the new code line from collections.abc import Mapping
