The PEP8 recommends importing like this:

Why is that? Is there a performance advantage to one of the styles?



Pep 8 is not about performance, it's about readability. And unless the two libraries are closely related, it's clearer to use separate lines for them.

I got a bit further, and if I'm only using a couple of functions from the import, I'll list them in the comment.
