Today we will have a quiz on chapter 3. After the quiz, we will check-in with everyone on the state of their progress learning unix, vim, and git.

Spend your homework time catching up on unix, vim and git.

We'll begin class today by discussing the second half of Chapter 3: Strings, lists and tuples.

We'll have another short quiz on Friday based on the Chapter 3 Exercise Set 0: Chapter Review and Chapter 3 Exercise Set 1: Doctest Exercises. You'll have class time to begin working on those exercises after our discussion.

Complete the exercises in Chapter 3 Exercise Set 0: Chapter Review and Chapter 3 Exercise Set 1: Doctest Exercises to be ready for a quiz on Friday.

We will begin class with our first quiz on Chapter 2: Values, expressions and statements. If you did the exercises in Chapter 2 Exercise Set 1: Introducting Doctest you will be ready for this quiz.

Then we will talk about Python's sequence types. I will demonstrate their uses and discuss common operations on sequences in class, and then draw your attention to important things to pay attention to as you read Chapter 3: Strings, lists and tuples in our online textbook.

I hope those of you catching up with the Unix cli and vim are making steady progress.

I'll show you today how to add a .vimrc file to your home directory which will turn vim into a nice Python IDE to hopefully help motivate your progress.

Read Chapter 3: Strings, lists and tuples, trying out the examples in the chapter on your computer and making sure you understand the ideas presented.

Complete as many of the exercises in Chapter 3 Exercise Set 0: Chapter Review as time permits.
