== Monday - Wednesday (2/29/16 - 3/2/16) ==
'''Agenda:'''
* Demo Benford's Law Assignment
* Introduction to Processing - Python Mode
** Complete [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-TyjK48PtO_dgBDLRxKOk8zvOReC_A5196skWzCI0wk/edit?usp=sharing Processing Lab 1: My First Sketch]

== Tuesday - Thursday (2/23/16 - 2/25/16) ==
'''Agenda:'''
* File I/O review
* Demo any missing assignments
* Benford's Law Assignment
*# Create a text file that contains a list of 1000 numbers from a naturally occurring data set
*#* If you cannot find one, try to getting ideas from:
*#**[http://testingbenfordslaw.com/ Testing Benford's Law]
*#**[http://www.data.gov U.S. Government's Open Data]
*#**[http://www.census.gov/ U.S. Census Bureau]
*# Write a python program that reads the file, extracts the first digit of every number, and determines the frequencies of 1-9
*# Print out the frequencies (percentages) of the numbers 1 through 9

== Wednesday - Friday (2/17/16 - 2/19/16) ==
'''Agenda:'''
* Introduction to File Reading & Writing (Input & Output)
*# Assume you have a single string containing the entire U.S. Constitution. Calculate and print out the frequency of the word "the"
*#* Download the following file: [[Media:Constitution.txt]]
*#* Hint: There is a useful string function that converts a string to a list of words.
*# Write a program that generates a textfile with 10000 random numbers from 0-100
*# Assume you have a single data file with 10000 random numbers from 0 to 100. Print out the frequency of each of the numbers.
*# Assume you have a list of strings of peoples' full names in random order. Print out an alphabetized list of only the last names.

* Example code to help read in a file:
<syntaxhighlight lang="Python">
# open a text file
file = open("Constitution.txt", "r")

# read all lines in the file and save in the constitution string variable
constitutionStr = file.read()

# close the file
file.close()

print(constitutionStr)
</syntaxhighlight>

* Example code to help write to a file:
<syntaxhighlight lang="Python">
# open a text file
file = open("output.txt", "w")

# read all lines in the file and save in the constitution string variable
file.write("Hello!\n")
file.write("world!")

# close the file
file.close()
</syntaxhighlight>

* Benford's Law
*# Read and watch [http://www.kirix.com/blog/2008/07/22/fun-and-fraud-detection-with-benfords-law/ Benford's Law and Fraud Detection]
*# Further reading [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/BenfordsLaw.html Benford's Law]
*# Research and find a set of naturally occurring numbers. Here are some ideas, but you can come up with your own:

*#*[http://www.data.gov U.S. Government's Open Data]
*#* [http://www.census.gov/ U.S. Census Bureau]
*#* Heights of mountains
*#* Atomic weights in the periodic table
*#* Baseball statistics
*#* etc.
*# Create a text file that contains a list of your numbers (try to have a list of 1000 numbers if possible)

== Monday (2/8/16) ==
'''Warmup:'''
# Given numList = [9, 6, 3, 1, 3, 6, 8]
# Use a for loop to print out half of each element

# Given strList = ["Arlington", "Fairfax", "Falls Church", "Alexandria"]
# Use a for loop to print out the first letter of each element

'''Agenda:'''
* CRFs & CS Courses
* Complete [[Advanced Python List Exercises]]

== Thursday (2/4/16) ==
'''Warmup:'''
# Given the following list: warmupList = [1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6]
# Swap the first and last elements in warmupList (you should use a temp variable)
# Be sure to make it so that your code works for ANY list (i.e. any numbers in the list)
