This is practically a search list for classes.
Instead of writing everytime java.util.Vector, you can just write Vector.
The compiler then uses this list to find Vector
1. the compiler looks for javax.swing.Vector --- does not exist
2. the compiler looks for java.awt.event.Vector --- does not exist
3. the compiler looks for javax.swing.border.Vector --- does not exist
4. java.util.Random --- the compiler won't look at it, because instead of including every class in java.util only the class Random is "imported"
5. the compiler looks for java.util.Vector --- found! For compilation the class java.util.Vector will be used everytime you write just Vector
