python中import一个模块时python解释器的搜索目录顺序：

The Module Search Path

When a module named spam is imported, the interpreter first searches for a built-in module with that name. If not found, it then searches for a file named spam.py in a list of directories given by the variablesys.path. sys.path is initialized from these locations:

• the directory containing the input script (or the current directory).
• PYTHONPATH (a list of directory names, with the same syntax as the shell variable PATH).
• the installation-dependent default.

After initialization, Python programs can modify sys.path. The directory containing the script being run is placed at the beginning of the search path, ahead of the standard library path. This means that scripts in that directory will be loaded instead of modules of the same name in the library directory. This is an error unless the replacement is intended. See section Standard Modules for more information.

Windows找DLL的顺序

With both implicit and explicit linking, Windows first searches for "known DLLs", such as Kernel32.dll and User32.dll. Windows then searches for the DLLs in the following sequence:

The directory where the executable module for the current process is located.

• The current directory.
• The Windows system directory. The GetSystemDirectory function retrieves the path of this directory.
• The Windows directory. The GetWindowsDirectory function retrieves the path of this directory.
• The directories listed in the PATH environment variable.
