howto reload Python module?

[dmitrey]

my Python module was changed in HDD (hardware disk drive), moreover,
changed its location (but still present in sys.path).
how can I reload a func "myfunc" from the module? (or howto reload
whole module)?
Thank you in advance, D.

You're moving the LOCATION of modules while they are running???

WHY???

Nevertheless, and much to my surprise, a quick test suggests that so long
as the new location is in sys.path, reload() continues to do what it is
supposed to do.
