Yes, there is a module somewhere that allows you to import a module
programatically by passing the name as a string. Look for an import
or module function or module in the docs...

But this begs the question why? Apart from possible environment
differences, like importing a different module depending on OS
(which can be easier done via an if/else construct anyway) why
would you want to?
Curious,
