+* Outline
+ - Running python scripts from command line
+ - Importing python modules
+ - Importing scipy \& pylab modules
+ - About python standard library.
+* Running Python script from command line
+ - Create a script, open text editor and type the following
+ : print "hello world!"
+ : print
+ - Save the script as ~hello.py~
+* Running Python script from command line (cont'd)
+ - Run the script
+ : $ python hello.py
+ /Syntax :/ *python filename*
+* Four plot problem
+ #+begin_latex
+ \begin{center}

+ #+end_latex
+* Fix ~linspace()~ problem
+ : from scipy import *
+* Fix ~plot()~ problem
+ : from pylab import *
+* Better way of fixing
+ : from scipy import linspace
+ instead of
+ : from scipy import *
+ ~*~ means import all functions from name-space ~scipy~.
+* Instead of ~*~
+ : from scipy import linspace, pi, sin
+ : from pylab import plot, legend, annotate
+ : from pylab import xlim, ylim, title, show
+ Is better than, ~from scipy import *~ \& ~from pylab import *~.
+* Another Fix

+ #+begin_latex
+ $-2\Pi$
+ #+end_latex
+ to
+ #+begin_latex
+ $2\Pi$
+ #+end_latex
+ .
+* What is a module?
+ Module is simply a file containing Python definitions and
+ statements. Definitions from a module can be imported into other
+ modules or into the main module.
+* Python standard library
+ Python has a very rich standard library of modules.
+ - Few libraries
+ - Math: ~math~, ~random~
+ - Internet access: ~urllib2~, ~smtplib~
+ - System, Command line arguments: ~sys~
+ - Operating system interface: ~os~
+ - regular expressions: ~re~
+ - compression: ~gzip~, ~zipfile~, ~tarfile~
+ - More information
+ - [[http://docs.python.org/library]]
+* Summary
+ - Running scripts from command line
+ - Learned about modules
+ - importing modules
+ - Python standard library
+* Thank you!
