But, but...

Doesn't one import all ".py" files?  I've looked through the available 
doc for the difference between "scripts" and "modules", but nothing 
jumps out at me.

Is the distinction that a script is something you run as "python 
script.py", while a module is something that you "import"?  As said, 
I'm new to this, so some of the more obvious stuff isn't (to me).

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Justin
