It makes the code unnecessarily ambiguous; the person reading the code can't tell that it's a relative import. > I think it's more clear/safe to just import the 'parameters', am I > wrong? You can use the explicit relative import syntax (I don't know if that satisfies ‘pylint’). -- \ “I wish there was a knob on the TV to turn up the intelligence. | `\ There's a knob called ‘brightness’ but it doesn't work.” | _o__) —Eugene P.
