You are importing everything from "multitask" without the namespace "multitask".
You try at line 7 to run "add" from "multitask", but the namespace doesnt 
exist...

So, you can run functions of "multitask" directly (without to call the 
namespace, as example just "add(printer('hello')")

or (better solution):

just remove "from x import y" and retry with "import multitask"

This has nothing to do with namespace, this is related to python3 syntax 
changes. Use python2 and everything will work without any issues.
