'Question about Colab importing your own modules
I am relatively new to Colab & python, so I don't really know how to use it. I have git-cloned a GitHub repository onto my Colab notebook. There are some modules inside the GitHub folder that I have cloned that I need to import them into the notebook. For example, there is a utils and models module that I want to import. I ran the code:
from models import * from utils import *
However, the Colab editor wrought the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'models' and ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'utils'. This led me to realize that I haven't imported the modules from the Git Hub clone in Colab Files into Colab. I couldn't find an answer on StackOverflow, w3schools, or the Colab official sites so I
wrought my question here. If any of you have a link to a guide or a solution, please help me. Thank you!

Yes, some of the Jupyter Notebook tricks worked. I used %cd pytorch_objectdetecttrack to get to the modules.

Not an expert in Colab, but for Python import only works for Python modules. So if there's a specific script you're trying to import, you will have to call it like import folder.someModule. The folder you're trying to access should go first, then the module name.
It's the same as saying ./folder/someModule.py.
tl:dr; You have to specify the path to the module if it's not in the current working directory.
