available for direct use. Names can also be used via dot syntax (e.g. `Foo.foo` to access
the name `foo`), whether they are `export`ed or not.
See the [manual section about modules](@ref modules) for details.

!!! note
Doing `using Foo` in packages or code that you want to keep working with
updated dependencies is not recommended. The reason for this is if another
dependency starts to export one of the same names as `Foo` the code will
error due to an ambiguity in which package the name should be taken from.
Instead, explicitly list what names you want to use from Foo, for example:
`using Foo: Foo, parsefile, readfile` to get access bring `Foo` and two
functions `parsefile` and `readfile` into scope.
