Importing Modules
Python comes with a large number of built-in
functions. These functions
are saved in files known as modules. To use the
built-in codes in Python
modules, we have to import them into our programs
first. We do that by
using the import keyword. There are three ways to
do it.
The first way is to import the entire module by
writing import
moduleName.
For instance, to import the random module, we write
import random.
To use the randrange() function in the random
module, we write
random.randrange(1, 10).
If you find it too troublesome to write random each
time you use the
function, you can import the module by writing
import random as r
(where r is any name of your choice). Now to use the
randrange()
function, you simply write r.randrange(1, 10).
The third way to import modules is to import
specific functions from the
module by writing from moduleName import
name1[, name2[, ...
nameN]].
For instance, to import the randrange() function from
the random
module, we write from random import randrange. If
we want to
import more than one functions, we separate them
with a comma. To
import the randrange() and randint() functions, we
write from
random import randrange, randint. To use the
function now, we
do not have to use the dot notation anymore. Just
write randrange(1,
10).
