In the Python Reference by David Beazley on p. 40, he substituted import math with from math import sqrt and he switched out d = d + math.sqrt(i) with sqrt(i). He said that that change made the program run twice as fast. So therefore I was under the impression that "from somemodule import someclass" would always be faster than import somemodule.
Is there a reason why I shouldn't? If they belong together, put them in a package and use __init__.py. if they don't belong together you are just obscuring the design for very little savings.
Ok, so I will keep the code as is. Thank you Luke and Kent! -Tino
