Module is imported more than once¶

Importing the same module more than once has no effect as each module is only loaded once. It also confuses readers of the code.

Recommendation¶

Remove the second import.

Example¶

import module1
import module2
import module1 # Duplicate import

References¶

Python: import statement.
