Still trying to get the hang of some python intricacies, but this one
has come up a few times. Beyond the obvious syntactic niceties what
is the difference between importing with and without the "from"
syntax?
Its nice for example to do this -
from socket import *
googleip = gethostbyname("www.google.com")
vs
import socket
googleip = socket.gethostbyname("www.google.com")
Is there any difference between these concepts? Is there an easy
google search term for me to research the difference to death?
Thanks in advance!
Rob
