<overview>

<p>Code is easier to read when each import statement is defined on a separate line.

</p>

</overview>

<recommendation>

<p>Update the code so that each import is defined on a separate line. PEP8 notes that it is

acceptable to define multiple imports from a subprocess in a single statement.</p>

</recommendation>

<example>

<p>The import statement:</p>

<sample src="ImportTwiceOnALine.py" />

<p>should be changed to:</p>

<sample src="ImportOnTwoLines.py" />

</example>
