Reading the section "6.11. The import statement" http://docs.python.org/py3k/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-import-statement
I found: """ Import statements are executed in two steps: (1) find a module, and initialize it if necessary; (2) define a name or names in the local namespace (of the scope where the import statement occurs). (...) The first form (without from) repeats these steps for each identifier in the list. The form with from performs step (1) once, and then performs step (2) repeatedly. """ In the last sentence, isn't it the opposite? With the "from" form it would find/initialize all the modules and define just the name after "from". Or am I missing something????? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
