Can I create a sage file, and import it as a Python module?

I am trying to create a file that produces some data using sage specific modules (eg graphs. ). Is there a way that I can save this file and then import it in a Python shell and / or in a Sage shell?

The problems I have encountered so far are:

  • if I try to save the file as filename.py and import it as a module in a Python or Sage shell, Python/ Sage won't recognize the sage specific functions (which makes sense)
  • if I try to save the file as filename.sage and import it as a module in a Sage shell, I get the error "No module named filename"

I am working from an Ubuntu terminal.

Thank you!
