from peewee import *

When I was completing an objective i tried to import peewee like this: import peewee

I got an error that it must be written like so: from peewee import *

To my knowledge there is no difference in the two.

Why am I being told to try again.

Can someone please explain the meaning of this?

Here's a great answer from Chris: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/if-we-import-everything-from-peewee-why-dont-we-just-import-peewee

For code challenges, if it asks you to import peewee, it will most likely be looking for from peewee import * unless otherwise stated since that is the way it was taught.
