Continuous errors occurring while trying to run a file importing pygame on VS Code

Question

I have been struggling for the past few hours on what I should do, and finally decided to resort to asking on StackOverflow.

PROBLEM: I keep getting terminal traceback calls but I have no idea what I should do about them. I will admit, it is probably me being stupid and not knowing what is happening, but it was my first time on VSCode and importing stuff. When I googled at first, I couldn’t get any answers.

CODE (I have a second file with dvd-image.png):

import pygame, time

pygame.init()
width, height = 800, 600
dvdLogoSpeed = [1, 1]
backgroundColor = 0, 0, 0

screen = pygame.display.set_mode((width, height))

dvdLogo = pygame.image.load("dvd-image.png")
dvdLogoRect = dvdLogo.get_rect()

while True:
    screen.fill(backgroundColor)

    screen.blit(dvdLogo, dvdLogoRect)
    dvdLogoRect = dvdLogoRect.move(dvdLogoSpeed)

    if dvdLogoRect.left < 0 or dvdLogoRect.right > width:
        dvdLogoSpeed[0] = -dvdLogoSpeed[0]
    if dvdLogoRect.top < 0 or dvdLogoRect.bottom > height:
        dvdLogoSpeed[1] = -dvdLogoSpeed[1]

    pygame.display.flip()
    time.sleep(10 / 1000)

TRACEBACK CALLS:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/xxx/Desktop/untitled101/pygame.py", line 1, in import pygame File "/Users/xxx/Desktop/untitled101/pygame.py", line 3, in pygame.init() AttributeError: partially initialized module 'pygame' has no attribute 'init' (most likely due to a circular import)

EXTRA INFORMATION:

• Device: MacBook Air
• Chip: M1
• VSCode Download: Universal
• Coder: Knows nothing good about tracebacks

Answer 1

pygame is a Python package and you have your own project named "pygame".

Pylance will recognize your project as the pygame package.

You can change your projcet name to solve it.
