Re: What is the purpose of the include function?

Hi Daniel, in this case I would think the latter would fail - the `include` function loads a URL conf module and then finds the `urlpatterns` attribute, whereas `admin.site.urls` is a class method that dynamically builds a list of URL patterns based on your installed apps. There's nothing to import in the latter case because there's no such `urls` module.

Hi,

In reference to urls.py what is the purpose of the include function?  For example what is the difference between these two lines?

url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),

url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
