S061: Recitation 1

8 September 2022

1
Agenda

• Administrative Items
• Lecture Recap
• L01 - Intro to Python knowledge & fundamental concepts

2
Administrative Items | Problem Sets

• Collaboration: don’t plagiarise. Write your own code.


• All PSET submissions are checked against each other and against historical
submissions.
• Halfway hand-in - submit some code before the deadline.
• Checkoffs occur at Office Hours - typically due 1 week after deadline.
• Late day policy
• 3 late days total
• 1 late day = 24hr extension
• Late days are discrete (no half days)
• Apply only to problem sets
• The last submitted pset is used for grading and late day calculation
• Submit on course website

3
Administrative Items | Finger Exercises

• Link on course website


• Due before each lecture
• Lots of small, quick problems - one poor score won’t have much impact

4
Administrative Items | Check Offs

• Starting with PS1, you need a checkoff for each pset (generally worth 30% of
your overall pset grade)
• Go through your code with a TA or LA, and answer some simple questions
about the pset. Score is based on code style and understanding of the pset
code
• Carefully check due date of Checkoff for each p set
• Late days cannot be used for checkoffs
• The queue gets long around the checkoff deadline, so get them done early!

5
Intro to Python | Python

• Anaconda is a Python Distribution, which contains Python, a set of Python


packages, a code editor (Spyder), and an interactive interpreter/shell (IPython)
• Spyder: Scientific Python Development Environment
• A place to edit code, run it, and debug it
• We encourage this dev environment for this class
• Make sure you run your code before you turn it in.

6
Lecture 1 Recap: Intro to Python + Fundamental Programming Concepts
• Python programs
• Set of instructions telling the computer exactly what to do.
• Can be run from a script (e.g script1.py) or directly from the console
• Each line of code is executed in the order it’s written in.
• It’s good practice to write tidy code & comments.
• Objects
• Programs manipulate data objects.
• Typically define an object with a variable name (e.g my_name = “Nicole”)
• Each object has a type (e.g. string, list, integer, float, boolean etc…)
• Scalar objects cannot be subdivided.
• Non-scalar objects have an internal structure that can be assessed.
• The type defines what you can do with the object

7
Lecture 1 Recap: Intro to Python + Fundamental Programming Concepts
• Operations & Expressions
• Operations are carried out on objects (what operations are valid is controlled by object
type)
• Expressions are formed by a combination of operations and objects.
• Complex & long expressions often evaluate to one value.
