\section{Pythonicity}

\frametitle{The Zen of Python}
Try this!
\begin{lstlisting}
>>> import this

{Style Guide}
Read PEP8

\section{More Python Machinery}
\subsection{Objects}
\begin{frame}{Objects in Python}
\begin{itemize}
\item What is an Object? (Types and classes)
\item identity
\item type
\item method
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Why are they useful?}
\small
\begin{lstlisting}
for element in (1, 2, 3):
print element
for key in {'one':1, 'two':2}:
print key
for char in "123":
print char
for line in open("myfile.txt"):
print line
for line in urllib2.urlopen('http://site.com'):
print line
\end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{And the winner is \ldots OBJECTS!}
All objects providing a similar inteface can be used the same way.\\
Functions (and others) are first-class objects. Can be passed to and returned from functions.
\inctime{10}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Dictionary}
\begin{frame}{Dictionary}
\begin{itemize}
\item aka associative arrays, key-value pairs, hashmaps, hashtables \ldots
\item \typ{ d = \{ ``Hitchhiker's guide'' : 42, ``Terminator'' : ``I'll be back''\}}
\item lists and tuples index: 0 \ldots n
\item dictionaries index using strings
\item aka key-value pairs
\item what can be keys?
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{Dict \ldots }
\begin{itemize}
\item \alert{Unordered}
\begin{block}{Standard usage}
for key in dict:\\
<use> dict[key] \# => value
\end{block}
\item \typ{d.keys()} returns a list
\item can we have duplicate keys?
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame} {Problem Set 2.1}
\begin{description}
\item[2.1.1] You are given date strings of the form ``29, Jul 2009'', or ``4 January 2008''. In other words a number a string and another number, with a comma sometimes separating the items.Write a function that takes such a string and returns a tuple (yyyy, mm, dd) where all three elements are ints.
\item[2.1.2] Count word frequencies in a file.
\item[2.1.3] Find the most used Python keywords in your Python code (import keyword).
\end{description}
\inctime{20}

\subsection{Set}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Set}
\begin{itemize}
\item Simplest container, mutable

2 in p10, 4 in p10
len(f10)
\end{lstlisting}

\frametitle{Problem set 2.2}
\begin{description}
\item[2.2.1] Given a dictionary of the names of students and their marks, identify how many duplicate marks are there? and what are these?
\item[2.2.2] Given a string of the form ``4-7, 9, 12, 15'' find the numbers missing in this list for a given range.

\item Given a tuple/dict how do you call a function?
\begin{itemize}
\item Using argument unpacking
\item For positional arguments: \verb+foo(*[5, 10])+
