Importing a module creates a new namespace for the names in that module.: $ python3.2 Python 3.2 (r32:88452, Feb 20 2011, 11:12:31) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import time >>> time.clock() 0.091744 You might want to review the Python tutorial here: http://docs.python.org/py3k/tutorial/index.html And, by the way, you should upgrade to Python 3.2 as soon as possible. Python 3.0.1 was a very early release of Python 3. It is known to be buggy and is no longer supported. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
