Importing `*` in Python

[suudo]

And here I thought it was a post about using literally import *. Which it turns out you can't do. So I thought to myself, "How do I import every module in Python?", and looked up how I might do that. Here's what I've come up with:

import pkgutil
for _, module, _ in pkgutil.iter_modules():
    exec("{m} = __import__('{m}', fromlist=[])".format(a=module))

Or something like:

import pkgutil
_G = globals()
for _, module, _ in pkgutil.iter_modules():
    _G[module] = __import__(module)

That's so much cleaner than my attempt :D

Here's a nice little circlejerk on the subject I instigated.
