I have a strange problem on python2.7.6 with Ubuntu :

my python 2.7.6 is installed but strangely time module is not working. my ubuntu version is 16.04

i tried installing python 2.7.16 as well but that didnt fixed the issue as 

/usr/local/bin# python2.7
Python 2.7.6 (default, Jul 22 2019, 12:49:04)
[GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import time
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named time

expected : import time should work

actual : ImportError: No module named time

How do i import time in python 2.7.6

output of :

: ls /usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/
