I’m encountering an issue with relative imports in my Python project. Whenever I try to run a module located in a subpackage, I get a “ModuleNotFoundError” indicating that the module cannot be found. Specifically, I have the following directory structure: “` my_project/ main.py my_package/ init.py sub_module.py “` Inside `sub_module.py`, I attempt to import a function from `main.py` using a relative import, such as `from ..main import my_function`.
