resolve_name(name, *additional_parts)
This ends up working like from module import object
but is easier to deal with than the :None:None:`__import__` builtin and supports digging into submodules.
A dotted path to a Python object--that is, the name of a function, class, or other object in a module with the full path to that module, including parent modules, separated by dots. Also known as the fully qualified name of the object.
If more than one positional arguments are given, those arguments are automatically dotted together with name
.
If the module or named object is not found.
Resolve a name like module.object
to an object and return it.

astropy.utils.introspection.resolve_name
Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.
Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)
SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.
All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
