Well it's actually a little more involved than that. When python import a module it executes the module code. This is why you often see at the bottom of a module: if __name__ == '__main__': # code to execute when running the module as opposed to importing it. When importing a module __name__ is the module's name rather than '__main__'. What happens when module A Imports module B depends on whether or not the import B statement is actually executed. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
