Your first assignment is to get familiar with the IDLE programming
environment for Python that we have installed on the PCs
(Start/Programs/Computing/IDLE) in the drop-in computer lab at Neufeld 9.
We'll use the "One Day of IDLE Toying" tutorial written by Danny Yoo
at Berkeley.

Here is an updated list of all the Python language constructs and libraries
that we've learned in class to date. For your own edification, you are
encouraged to learn as much about Python and its libraries as you can.
However, for class purposes in your labs, please limit yourself to these
constructs.
