True, but it won't be in the same namespace. See below:
>>> import time
>>> print time.time()
1510180694.04
>>> quit()
By doing a straight import I have to reference the namespace time and the function time. (Yeh, I should have picked a different example, but I couldn't think of any)
>>> from time import time
>>> time()
1510180718.76834
>>> quit()
By doing the from, I import the time function into the __main__ namespace so I don't need to reference a name space when I call it.
