Problem
When
modules.pyimportedMyAgefrommy_classes.py, Python executed the entire file — including the hardcodedMyAge("1982-08-04", ...)instance at the bottom. This caused unintended output and made it appear that changes to the date inmodules.pyhad no effect.Fix
Wrapped the standalone instantiation in
if __name__ == "__main__":so it only runs whenmy_classes.pyis executed directly.Reference
