Trying To Use Clifford Algebra Package in Python/Spyder

Question

I installed the "clifford" package, or at least so I believed. Here is what I executed:

import clifford as cf
layout, blades = cf.Cl(4)

Here's the result:

  File "C:UsersasdfDocuments4DPythonclifford.py", line 10, in <module>
    layout, blades = cf.Cl(3)

AttributeError: partially initialized module 'clifford' has no attribute 'Cl' (most likely due to a circular import)

Now what?

Answer 1

Your file is called clifford.py hence it creates another python module called clifford and trys importing from there.
Renaming your file should work
