Introduction to Python for non-programmers using gapminder data

python-intro's Issues

Work "people" list/dict example into notes.

This can be expanded further to show some features in the conditionals section. E.g.,

for person in people:
  if person['occupation'] == 'System Administrator' and person['age'] < 30:
    (do something here ...)

... or something like that!

Maybe mention writing/importing own modules?

See Winter 2023 day 4 video, variable scope section

Gotcha: reloading ... probably have to do:

import importlib
importlib.reload(module)

add 'get' example for dictionaries

See spring 2023 video, day 2 around 2 hour mark

Maybe add description of `format` to the looping over files notes

See Winter 2023 day 4 video.
Nice example: data directory variable for glob pattern.

Mention 'break' in the conditionals section

See spring 2023 day 2, approx 2:58 mark

Rename dataframe names from `data` to (e.g.) `europe_df`

Issue is in the title.

Add the 'and' 'or' and 'not' and '!=' to the conditional section

Maybe add a bunch of stuff about logical statements.

There is some content at the start of day 3 of Winter 2024.

Move conditionals before for loops.
