Python's import system is discussed at
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html including the idea of
"packages" which consist of more than one module.

(Judging from previous questions, you may also like to peruse the
previous chapter of that manual: Python's "Execution Model")

More of the actual machinery for handling imports, and the various
sub-components available to advanced-users at
https://docs.python.org/3/library/modules.html which also includes the
various file formats which may be handled.
