<DIV><FONT color=#000080>Hello! The standard Python practice for importing
modules is, for example:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080>import sys</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080>import os</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080>etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080>In NumPy (and SciPy) the 'book' suggests
using:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080>from numpy import *</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=center><FONT color=#000080>from scipy import *</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080>However, when I instead use 'import numpy'
it causes all sorts of errors in my existing code.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT color=#000080>What do you suggest?</FONT></DIV>
