+\label{sec-1}
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item invoke the \texttt{ipython} interpreter
+\item quit the \texttt{ipython} interpreter
+\item navigate in the history of \texttt{ipython}
+\item use tab-completion
+\item look-up documentation of functions
+\item interrupt incomplete or incorrect commands
+\end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Question 1}
+\label{sec-2}
+
+  Type \texttt{ab} and hit tab to see what happens. Next, just type \texttt{a} and
+  hit tab to see what happens.
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Solution 1}
+\label{sec-3}
+
+  \texttt{ab} tab completes to \texttt{abs} and \texttt{a<tab>} gives us a list of all the
+  commands starting with a.
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Question 2}
+\label{sec-4}
+
+  Look-up the documentation of \texttt{round} and see how to use it.
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Solution 2}
+\label{sec-5}
+
+  \texttt{round?}
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\frametitle{Question 3}
+\label{sec-6}
+
+  Check the output of
+\lstset{language=Python}
+\begin{lstlisting}
+round(2.48)
+round(2.48, 1)
+round(2.48, 2)
+
+round(2.484)
+round(2.484, 1)
+round(2.484, 2)
+\end{lstlisting}
+  Look-up the documentation of \texttt{round} and see how to use it.
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Solution 3}
+\label{sec-7}
+
+  We get 2.0, 2.5 and 2.48, which are what we expect. 
+\end{frame}
+\begin{frame}
+\frametitle{Question 4}
+\label{sec-8}
+
+  Try typing \texttt{round(2.484}, and hit enter. and then cancel the command
+  using Ctrl-C. Then, type the command, \texttt{round(2.484, 2)} and resume
+  the video.

+\label{sec-10}
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item invoking and quitting the \texttt{ipython} interpreter
+\item navigating the history
+\item using tab-completion to work faster
+\item looking-up documentation using \texttt{?}
+\item sending keyboard interrupts using \texttt{Ctrl-C}
