An introduction to Pure Python

In this workshop we will learn how about writing/running pure Python code, built-in data types, objects, and control flow constructs (loops, if statements, ...) and basic file input/output operations.

• Running Python code
• Python Built-in Types and Operations
• Assignment operator
• Control Flow Statements
• Writing Functions
• Importing Modules
• Standard Library
• A Quick Note about Python 3

These notes are based on the pure Python section (written by Thomas Robitaille and Rory Holmes) of the python4mpia , and the scipy-lectures on Python.
