This is the tenth lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information.  Tuples are a lot like lists - so in this chapter, we kind of are reviewing lists and dictionaries as will as learning about tuples.  We also learn about sorting in this chapter.

This is the Introductory lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information.   It is a bit longer than the rest and give some background and motivation.  If you are in a hurry - you could skip to the next lecture and come back later. For a video version of this lecture, a free ebook and a free online course about Python, see www.pythonlearn.com

This is the second lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information covering expressions, variables, and other Pyton language details.  We are laying the groundwork for understanding the big picture.  For a video version of this lecture, a free ebook and a free online course about Python, see www.pythonlearn.com

This is the third lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information and covers conditional execution.   In this chapter we see how computer programs encode decisions and choices that they make.  For a video version of this lecture, a free ebook and a free online course about Python, see www.pythonlearn.com

This is the fourth lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information and covers functions.  Functions are how we write programs without repeating ourself over and over.  Functions a pretty advanced concept and we only cover them lightly in this chapter.  For a video version of this lecture, a free ebook and a free online course about Python, see www.pythonlearn.com

This is the fifth lecture for Python For Informatics: Exploring Information and covers iterations or "loops".   We see how to make Python do something over and over and look at commonly used loop patterns. We are still not seeing the big picture but starting to look ar "paragraphs" of code. The big picture is coming soon. For a video version of this lecture, a free ebook and a free online course about Python, see www.pythonlearn.com
