Don't understand this AttributeError: module 'turtle' has no attribute 'Turtle'

Question

#archimedes spiral by rays

import math
import turtle

def spiral(t, a, b):
    diff=5
    number=500
    for i in range(number):
        t.penup()
        t.fd(a+b*i*diff*math.pi/180)
        t.pendown()
        t.lt(90)
        t.fd(10)
        t.bk(10)
        t.rt(90)
        t.penup()
        t.bk(a+b*i*diff*math.pi/180)
        t.lt(diff)


bob=turtle.Turtle()
bob.speed(1000)

spiral(bob,0, 2)

The code gives an error message as follows:

RESTART: C:\Users\Manish Kumar\Desktop\TBN\repository\Competitive Programming\PYTHON\python scripts\archimedian_spiral.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Manish Kumar\Desktop\TBN\repository\Competitive Programming\PYTHON\python scripts\archimedian_spiral.py", line 4, in <module>
    import turtle

File "C:\Users\Manish Kumar\Desktop\TBN\repository\Competitive Programming\PYTHON\python scripts\turtle.py", line 7, in <module>
    bob=turtle.Turtle()

AttributeError: module 'turtle' has no attribute 'Turtle'
>>>

I do not understand the error message. How can I make the code work? This code used to run smoothly some 3 to 4 months back.

Solution 1

Change your file name with something else like turtle_something.py. Because of its conflicting with the turtle library.

Solution 2

The problem is resolved. I made a mistake of creating a python script, naming it "turtle.py" and saving it in the same folder where i had kept this code. So, it was interfering with the turtle library

The problem os resolved. I had created a python code and named it "turtle.py" by mistake. It was saved in the same folder as the above code. So, it was interfering with the turtle library

This answer should have been the accepted one, imho.
