I'm building a python project in VS2015. This project has several files in different folders.For example file settings.py in folder config. I have a main.py file in folder bin. In main.py I need to import settings.py. This is what I'm doing in main.py:

#! /usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import sys
from pygame.locals import *
import os

print(os.getcwd())  #check if the working directory is right
from config.settings import *

However, when I run the project, I get this Error:No module named 'config'. But if I enter from config.settings import * in the interactive window, there is no Error comes out. I'm sure folder config is under print(os.getcwd()). Why this happened? How can I solve it?

Edit:Here is my project structure:

We will have to see the directory structure itself, including `__init__.py` files – Ofer Sadan May 27 '18 at 06:02

The answer I wrote before was wrong, sorry, so i deleted it. look here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16981921/relative-imports-in-python-3 – Ofer Sadan May 27 '18 at 12:44
anyway if you want to import `config.settings` in your `main.py` than `config` folder must also be inside `bin` folder – Ofer Sadan May 27 '18 at 12:45
