Answer 1

When directory 'D:\\zjm_code\\register2' is on sys.path, this means you can import modules and packages that are INSIDE that directory.

To import the directory register2 itself, two conditions:

1. its parent, 'D:\\zjm_code', must be on sys.path; and
2. file 'D:\\zjm_code\\register2\\__init__.py' must exist

__init__.py is the code that actually executes when you “import the directory”.
