Question on the Module Import

[frank cui]

Hi all,

I'm quite a novice in doing python,and i wish to ask you guys a question on
the module import.

Say we have a source file called module1.py.

What's the difference between the " import module1 " and " from module1
import * "

I know that conventionally by coding style, we dont use the second form,but
does the first one also reach the same effect ? (importing all the classes
and functions and pollute the namespace?)

thanks in advance for your answer.

Regards,
Frank
