title: How to reference python package when filename contains a period
body: <p>I am using django and I have a file named models.admin.py and I want to do the following idea in models.py:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from "models.admin" import *
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>however, I get a syntax error for having double quotes. But if I just do </p>
  
  <pre><code>from models.admin import *
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>then I get "ImportError: No module named admin"</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to import from a python file that has a period in its name?</p>
