The convention is to use a single leading underscore _f to indicate
private things.
When you see something like:

from some_module import _function

you know you are messing with internal stuff.

There is another form of import:

from some_module import *

that will import all public names defined in some_module, into the
current namespace. By default, the public names are all names not
beginning with "_" - but you can customize it defining __all__ which
must be the list of public names. (Note that this form of import is
strongly discouraged).

import.html>
