the code is output the error of the ubuntu

from bluetooth import *

target_name = "My Phone"
target_address = None

nearby_devices = discover_devices()

for address in nearby_devices:
if target_name == lookup_name( address ):
target_address = address
break

if target_address is not None:
print "found target bluetooth device with address", target_address
else:
print "could not find target bluetooth device nearby"

the error

luca@luca-XPS-M1330:~/py-temperature/py-temperature$ python bluetooth.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bluetooth.py", line 14, in <module>
from bluetooth import *

nearby_devices = discover_devices()
NameError: name 'discover_devices' is not defined

it's a bug of the module? thanks

The module "bluetooth" doesn't export any function called
discover_devices(). You could try "dir(bluetooth)" or "help(bluetooth)"
(do that from an interactive prompt) to find out what is in there. I
don't know why you expect such a function there, if it is mentioned in
the documentation or example code that would be a bug.

Perhaps you named your script bluetooth.py, and thus masked the module
bluetooth.py. Pick a different name for your own sources.

from bluetooth import *

When you say "from bluetooth import *", Python will find a file
name "bluetooth.py" and import stuff from that file. Since your
script happens to be named "bluetooth.py", Python will import
your script, thinking it is a module.
it's a bug of the module?

You've chosen the wrong file name. Rename your script.


Hope this helps,
