attempts to import a Python module named lib

keyword tells Python to load an external module or library so its functionality can be used in the current script. -
lib Module: Python will look for a module named
lib
and load it. This could be:- A standard library module, if
lib
were part of Python's standard libraries (though there's no official module named simplylib
in Python's standard library). - A third-party Python package installed in your environment via tools like
