Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what is up with this:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Calendar
NameError: name 'Calendar' is not defined
  >>>  from calendar import Calendar
  >>>  Calendar
<class 'calendar.Calendar'>

?

calendar.py defines __all__ this way:

__all__ = ["IllegalMonthError", "IllegalWeekdayError", "setfirstweekday",
            "firstweekday", "isleap", "leapdays", "weekday", "monthrange",
            "monthcalendar", "prmonth", "month", "prcal", "calendar",
            "timegm", "month_name", "month_abbr", "day_name", "day_abbr"]

Only those names are imported with '*'.

Oh, I didn't realise modules could do that. Thanks.

Do you know what the rationale behind not including 'Calendar' is?
