Introduction to Programming Week 7
Summary
The summary is short again this week, because all of the new content is in the pages on tuples and dictionaries.
Part 1: Tuples
See the page on tuples.
Part 2: Dictionaries
See the page on dictionaries.
Part 3: Wordplay
In class we worked on a program that searches through a file of words. For details see the class transcript.
One significant new technique we used was passing functions as parameters to other functions. This is a nice feature of Python that is only possible because Python supports first class functions.
