5.2.10 importfrom

Syntax:
importfrom( package_name , name );
importfrom( package_name , list_of_names );
Purpose:
creates a new identifier in the current package which is a copy of the one specified by name in the package package_name. package_name can be Top or any other identifier of type package.

Note:
Objects defined in a ring are not automatically imported when importing the ring.

Warning:
The identifier is copied to the current package. It does still exist (independently) in the package package_name. If the identifier should be erased in the package from which it originates, exportto should be used instead.

Example:
 
listvar(Top);
==> // Top                            [0]  package Top (T)
==> // ::mathicgb_prOrder             [0]  proc from singmathic.so (C)
