Importing Modules

• help(module_name) will list all functions for module

  • Example help(math)

## Option 1
    # Imports all commands for module
    import <modual name>
    # Example
    import math
## Option 2
    # Only importing part of a module
    from math import <function name>
    # Example
    from math import sqrt
## Option 3
    # Renaming module from sqrt to s for less typing
    from math import sqrt as <variable name>
    # Example
    from math import sqrt as s
## Option 4
    # Import all features from module (could be problematic)
    # Example
    from math import *
