This page is a scratchpad for idea for future classes.

In 1.02 I drew a parse tree to show how expressions in Python get reduced to simple operations that work on just two things at a time.

  • Exercise: Produce a function/tool to extract the colors of a website (those listed in CSS, etc.) and produce a palette (both visual, and CSS/text) -- useful!

Adventures in Command Line


Eliza... tie in with Python callbacks...


Broad, recurrent themes:

  • time & code
  • callbacks
  • feeds
  • bridging (not from scratch)

Information Visualisation: ManyEyes

Making a slideshow tool with imagemagick / mplayer / python

Using the find command

find tmp/* -exec identify {} \;

A python feature we've never come to, officially, in the course, but super cool about python: List Comprehensions & Generator Expressions [1]

Mplayer in slave mode (controlling applications from Python)

PythonEscaping

PythonPlugins

TextAnalysis

CharacterSets

WordGames
