 For reasons of efficiency as well as consistency, Python only reads the module
 file on the first time a module is imported. If it didn't, in a program
 consisting of many modules where each one imports the same basic module, the
-basic module would be parsed and re-parsed many times. To force rereading of a
+basic module would be parsed and re-parsed many times. To force re-reading of a
 changed module, do this::
 
- import imp
+ import importlib
 import modname
- imp.reload(modname)
+ importlib.reload(modname)
 
 Warning: this technique is not 100% fool-proof. In particular, modules

 updated to use the new class definition. This can result in the following
 paradoxical behaviour:
 
- >>> import imp
+ >>> import importlib
 >>> import cls
 >>> c = cls.C() # Create an instance of C
- >>> imp.reload(cls)
+ >>> importlib.reload(cls)
 <module 'cls' from 'cls.py'>
 >>> isinstance(c, cls.C) # isinstance is false?!?
 False
