\section{Creating and running scripts}
\begin{frame}
{Creating python files}
\begin{itemize}
\item aka scripts
\item use your editor
\item extension \typ{.py}
\item run with \texttt{python hello.py} at the command line
\item in IPython using \kwrd{\%run}
\end{itemize}
\inctime{5}
\end{frame}
\section{Files Handling}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Basic File Operations}
Opening and Reading files
\begin{lstlisting}
In [6]: f = open('/path/to/file_name')
In [7]: data = f.read() # Read entire file.
In [8]: line = f.readline() # Read one line.
In [9]: f.close() # close the file.
\end{lstlisting}
Writing files
\begin{lstlisting}
In [10]: f = open('/path/to/file_name', 'w')
In [11]: f.write('hello world\n')
In [12]: f.close()
\end{lstlisting}
\begin{itemize}
\item Everything read or written is a string
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{File and \kwrd{for}}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [13]: f = open('dummyfile')
In [14]: for line in f:
...: print line
...:
\end{lstlisting}
\inctime{10}
\end{frame}
\section{Strings}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Strings}
\begin{lstlisting}
s = 'this is a string'
s = 'This one has "quotes" inside!'
s = "I have 'single-quotes' inside!"
l = "A string spanning many lines\
one more line\
yet another"
t = """A triple quoted string does
not need to be escaped at the end and
"can have nested quotes" etc."""
\end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]\frametitle{Strings and \typ{split()}}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [15]: a = 'hello world'
In [16]: a.split()
Out[17]: ['hello', 'world']
\end{lstlisting}
Now try this:
\begin{lstlisting}
In [18]: b = 'KD, Madhu, Punchagan, Shantanu, Vattam'
In [19]: b.split(',')
Out[20]: ['KD', ' Madhu', ' Punchagan', ' Shantanu', ' Vattam']
\end{lstlisting}
\inctime{5}
\end{frame}
\section{Plotting points}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{How to plot points?}
We saw how to plot graphs, lets now look at how to plot points.\\
\begin{lstlisting}
In [21]: plt.plot(x, sin(x), 'ro')
Out[22]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0xac17e0c>]
\end{lstlisting}
\begin{itemize}
\item \kwrd{'r'},\kwrd{'g'},\kwrd{'b'} for red, green and blue
\item \kwrd{'o'} - Dots
\item \kwrd{'-'} - Lines
\item \kwrd{'- -'} - Dashed lines
\end{itemize}
\inctime{5}
\end{frame}
\section{Lists}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{List creation and indexing}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [23]: lst = [] #Empty list
In [24]: lst = [1,2,3,4] #More useful list
In [25]: len(lst)
Out[26]: 4
In [27]: lst[0]+lst[1]+lst[-1]
Out[27]: 7
\end{lstlisting}
\begin{itemize}
\item Indices start with ?
\item Negative indices indicate ?
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{List: slices}
\begin{itemize}
\item Slicing is a basic operation
\item \typ{list[initial:final:step]}
\item The step is optional
\end{itemize}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [28]: lst[1:3] # A slice.
Out[28]: [2, 3]
In [29]: lst[1:-1]
Out[29]: [2, 3]
In [30]: lst[1:] == lst[1:-1]
Out[30]: False
\end{lstlisting}
Explain last result
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{List: more slices}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [31]: lst[0:-1:2] # Notice the step!
Out[31]: [1, 3]
In [31]: lst[::2]
Out[31]: [1, 3]
In [32]: lst[-1::-1]
\end{lstlisting}
What do you think the last one will do?
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{List methods}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [33]: lst.append(5)
In [34]: lst
Out[34]: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
In [35]: lst.append([6,7])
In [36]: lst
Out[36]: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, [6, 7]]
In [37]: lst.extend([8,9])
In [38]: lst
Out[38]: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, [6, 7], 8, 9]
\end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{List containership}
\begin{lstlisting}
In [39]: animals = ['cat', 'dog', 'rat', 'croc']
In [40]: 'dog' in animals
Out[40]: True
In [41]: 'snake' in animals
Out[41]: False

\section{Modules and import}
\begin{frame}{Modules and \typ{import}}
\begin{itemize}
\item \kwrd{import} x
\item \kwrd{from} x \kwrd{import} y

Whats the difference??
