+Hello friends and welcome to the tutorial on getting started with
+lists.
+
+ {{{ Show the slide containing title }}}
+
+ {{{ Show the slide containing the outline slide }}}
+
+In this tutorial we will be getting acquainted with a python data
+structure called lists.  We will learn ::
+ 
+ * How to create lists
+ * Structure of lists
+ * Access list elements
+ * Append elements to lists
+ * Deleting elements from lists
+
+List is a compound data type, it can contain data of other data
+types. List is also a sequence data type, all the elements are in
+order and there order has a meaning.
+
+We will first create an empty list with no elements. On your IPython
+shell type ::
+
+   empty = [] 
+   type(empty)
+   
+
+This is an empty list without any elements.
+
+* Filled lists
+
+Lets now define a list, nonempty and fill it with some random elements.
+
+nonempty = ['spam', 'eggs', 100, 1.234]
+
+Thus the simplest way of creating a list is typing out a sequence 
+of comma-separated values (items) between square brackets. 
+All the list items need not have the same data type.
+
+
+
+As we can see lists can contain different kinds of data. In the
+previous example 'spam' and 'eggs' are strings and 100 and 1.234
+integer and float. Thus we can put elements of heterogenous types in
+lists. Thus list themselves can be one of the element types possible
+in lists. Thus lists can also contain other lists.  Example ::
+
+      list_in_list=[[4,2,3,4],'and', 1, 2, 3, 4]
+
+We access list elements using the number of index. The
+index begins from 0. So for list nonempty, nonempty[0] gives the
+first element, nonempty[1] the second element and so on and
+nonempty[3] the last element. ::
+
+	    nonempty[0] 
+	    nonempty[1] 
+	    nonempty[3]
+
+We can also access the elememts from the end using negative indices ::
+   
+   nonempty[-1] 
+   nonempty[-2] 
+   nonempty[-4]
+
+-1 gives the last element which is the 4th element , -2 second to last and -4 gives the fourth
+from last element which is first element.
+
+We can append elements to the end of a list using append command. ::
+
+   nonempty.append('onemore') 
+   nonempty
+   nonempty.append(6) 
+   nonempty
+   
+As we can see non empty appends 'onemore' and 6 at the end.
+
+
+
+Using len function we can check the number of elements in the list
+nonempty. In this case it being 6 ::
+	 
+	 len(nonempty)
+
+
+
+Just like we can append elements to a list we can also remove them.
+There are two ways of doing it. One is by using index. ::
+
+      del(nonempty[1])
+
+
+
+deletes the element at index 1, i.e the second element of the
+list, 'eggs'. The other way is removing element by content. Lets say
+one wishes to delete 100 from nonempty list the syntax of the command
+should be :: 
+      
+      nonempty.remove(100)
+
+but what if their were two 100's. To check that lets do a small
+experiment. ::
+
+	   nonempty.append('python') 
+	   nonempty
+	   nonempty.remove('python') 
+	   nonempty
+
+If we check a now we will see that the first occurence 'spam' is removed
+thus remove removes the first occurence of the element in the sequence
+and leaves others untouched.
+
+
+{{{Slide for Summary }}}
+
+
+In this tutorial we came across a sequence data type called lists. ::
+
+ * We learned how to create lists.  
+ * How to access lists.
+ * Append elements to list.
+ * Delete Element from list.  
+ * And Checking list length.

-The diff function differentiates an expression or a function . Its
+The diff function differentiates an expression or a function. Its
 first argument is expression or function and second argument is the
-independent variable .
-
-.. #[Madhu: Full stop, Full stop, Full stop]
+independent variable.
 
 We have already tried an expression now lets try a function ::
 
-   f=exp(x^2)+arcsin(x) diff(f(x),x)
+   f=exp(x^2)+arcsin(x) 
+   diff(f(x),x)
 
-To get a higher order differentiation we need to add an extra argument
+To get a higher order differential we need to add an extra third argument
 for order ::
  
    diff(<tab> diff(f(x),x,3)
 
-.. #[Madhu: Please try to be more explicit saying third argument]
-
 in this case it is 3.
 
 
 Just like differentiation of expression you can also integrate them ::
 
-     x = var('x') s = integral(1/(1 + (tan(x))**2),x) s
-
-.. #[Madhu: Two separate lines.]
+     x = var('x') 
+     s = integral(1/(1 + (tan(x))**2),x) 
+     s
 
-To find the factors of an expression use the "factor" function
+
 
-.. #[Madhu: See the diff]
+Many a times we need to find factors of an expression ,we can use the "factor" function
 
 ::
-    factor(<tab> y = (x^100 - x^70)*(cos(x)^2 + cos(x)^2*tan(x)^2) f =
-    factor(y)
+    factor(<tab> 
+    y = (x^100 - x^70)*(cos(x)^2 + cos(x)^2*tan(x)^2) 
+    f = factor(y)
 
-One can also simplify complicated expression using sage ::
+One can  simplify complicated expression ::
+    
     f.simplify_full()
 
-This simplifies the expression fully . You can also do simplification
+This simplifies the expression fully . We can also do simplification
 of just the algebraic part and the trigonometric part ::
 
-    f.simplify_exp() f.simplify_trig()
+    f.simplify_exp() 
+    f.simplify_trig()
     
-.. #[Madhu: Separate lines?]
+
 
 One can also find roots of an equation by using find_root function::
 
-    phi = var('phi') find_root(cos(phi)==sin(phi),0,pi/2)
-
-.. #[Madhu: Separate lines?]
+    phi = var('phi') 
+    find_root(cos(phi)==sin(phi),0,pi/2)
 
 Lets substitute this solution into the equation and see we were
 correct ::
 
-     var('phi') f(phi)=cos(phi)-sin(phi)
-     root=find_root(f(phi)==0,0,pi/2) f.substitute(phi=root)
-
-.. #[Madhu: Separate lines?]
+     var('phi') 
+     f(phi)=cos(phi)-sin(phi)
+     root=find_root(f(phi)==0,0,pi/2) 
+     f.substitute(phi=root)
 
-as we can see the solution is almost equal to zero .
+as we can see when we substitute the value the answer is almost = 0 showing 
+the solution we got was correct.
 
-.. #[Madhu: So what?]
-
-We can also define symbolic matrices ::
 
 
 
-   var('a,b,c,d') A=matrix([[a,1,0],[0,b,0],[0,c,d]]) A
+Lets us now try some matrix algebra symbolically ::
+
+
 
-.. #[Madhu: Why don't you break the lines?]
+   var('a,b,c,d') 
+   A=matrix([[a,1,0],[0,b,0],[0,c,d]]) 
+   A
 
 Now lets do some of the matrix operations on this matrix
 
-.. #[Madhu: Why don't you break the lines? Also how do you connect
-     this up? Use some transformation keywords in English]
-::
-    A.det() A.inverse()
-
-.. #[Madhu: Why don't you break the lines?]
 
-You can do ::
-    
-    A.<Tab>
+::
+    A.det() 
+    A.inverse()
 
-To see what all operations are available
 
-.. #[Madhu: Sounds very abrupt]
 
 {{{ Part of the notebook with summary }}}
 
 So in this tutorial we learnt how to
 
 
-We learnt about defining symbolic expression and functions .  
-And some built-in constants and functions .  
-Getting value of built-in constants using n function.  
-Using Tab to see the documentation.  
-Also we learnt how to sum a series using sum function.  
-diff() and integrate() for calculus operations .  
-Finding roots , factors and simplifying expression using find_root(), 
-factor() , simplify_full, simplify_exp , simplify_trig .
-Substituting values in expression using substitute function.
-And finally creating symbolic matrices and performing operation on them .
