This course goes deeper into the capabilities of the Python computer language.  Python, unlike many older languages, is very good at handling text, for instance going through a phone book and finding all the people who live on a particular street.  Students will use many of the built-in methods to handle text (strings) and lists.   Reading and writing files will be emphasized, as this is fundamental to any academic, scientific, or business application.  Python is an object-oriented language so students will become conversant in terms and concepts associated with object-oriented design and implementation and independently produce programs demonstrating these concepts.  Note that there will be many in-class assignments to produce working programs.  Writing programs is extremely time consuming, but it is very important to instill confidence and solidify learned concepts

Prerequisite: CITPT131 or permission of the instructor. P/T Hours: 3.
