Basic Example remove "tkinter."

[ShaunKulesa]

if you do from tkinter import * you wont have to do root = tkinter.Tk() instead you can do root = Tk()

I would avoid star imports because it really pollutes the module. It's not really recommended.

You can import specific objects or shorten the imported module name instead

# Shorten the imported module name
import tkinter as tk
tk.Tk()
# Import specific objects
from tkinter import Tk
Tk()

It can make sense in some cases, but it gets messy as programs grow. Code inspection tools and linters are not a fan of star imports.
