This page will be used to keep track of the commands and major concepts for each lab in EGR 103.
Lectures
Lecture 1 - Introduction
- Class web page: EGR 103L; assignments, contact info, readings, etc - see slides on Errata/Notes page
- Sakai page: Sakai 103L page; grades, surveys and tests, some assignment submissions
- Piazza page: Piazza 103L page; message board for questions
Lecture 2 - Programs and Programming
- To play with Python:
- Install it on your machine or a public machine: Download
- Quick tour of Python
- Editing window, variable explorer, and console
- Variable explorer is your friend
- From Dewey - programming language typically have ability to work with input, output, math, conditional execution, and repetition
- Hilton and Bracy Seven Steps
- Class work developing algorithm for program to determine if a number is prime
- Inputs in Python using input() command - always grab strings
- Convert strings containing integer characters to integers using int()
- Some commands are only available by importing from modules;
import numpy as npwill bring in all the functions of the numpy module. Access these commands by typing np.VALUE or np.FUNCTION (for example, np.pi or np.cos(2))
