https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html#importing-from-a-package
says that
"The import statement uses the following convention: if a package’s __init__.py code defines a list named __all__, it is taken to be the list of module names that should be imported when from package import * is encountered."
However, of course this is not true. The behaviour is that `__all__` lists the names that are to be imported from the package with from package import *; only only those names that raise AttributeError at the time of import would be attempted to be imported as submodules. |
