instead so very similar in spirit to
1,507.679
4.321
what we did with a list but instead of
1,510.279
4.081
using location zero and one we're much
1,512
4.799
more clearly explicitly semantically
1,514.36
4.52
using quote unquote name and quote
1,516.799
4.36
unquote house because you index into
1,518.88
4.72
lists and topples using numbers but you
1,521.159
5.721
index into dictionaries using strings as
1,523.6
5.04
I've done here all right let me go ahead
1,526.88
4.76
and run python of studenty we'll again
1,528.64
5.68
do Harry from Gryffindor and I think all
1,531.64
4.88
as well let me run it one more time this
1,534.32
4.359
time with Padma who in the movies is
1,536.52
4.72
from Gryffindor but should really be
1,538.679
3.281
from
1,541.24
3.84
Ravenclaw are any questions then on this
1,541.96
6.4
progression from tuples to lists to
1,545.08
5.04
dictionaries we haven't necessarily
1,548.36
4.24
introduced anything new other than those
1,550.12
5.159
tuples which have been available to us
1,552.6
4.76
all this time but the goal at the moment
1,555.279
3.921
is just just to demonstrate this
1,557.36
3.52
distinction among these different data
1,559.2
3.719
types and how they each work a little
1,560.88
5.12
bit differently what if a a combination
1,562.919
6.401
of lists is there in a tuple so is the
1,566
6.399
list like we can change the list because
1,569.32
6.4
tupple are immutable but lists are
1,572.399
5.601
mutable correct you can change the
1,575.72
4.079
contents of lists and you can put most
1,578
3.919
anything you want in them other lists or
1,579.799
3.88
strings as I've done integers or
1,581.919
3.841
anything else tles you can do the exact
1,583.679
4
same thing but you cannot change them
1,585.76
4.6
once you've created them a dictionary is
1,587.679
5.321
more like a list in that it is mutable
1,590.36
5.88
you can change it but the way you index
1,593
5.24
into a dictionary is by way of these
1,596.24
4.52
Keys these strings as we keep seeing
1,598.24
5.88
rather than by numbers those numeric
1,600.76
6.159
indices all right well let me propose
1,604.12
5.36
that there is yet another way of solving
1,606.919
5
this problem and indeed I would argue
1,609.48
4.439
that there's now an opportunity to hand
1,611.919
3.36
even though this program isn't
1,613.919
3.36
particularly complicated all I'm doing
1,615.279
5.321
is collecting a name from the user and a
1,617.279
5.361
uh house from the user you could imagine
1,620.6
4
wanting longer term to collect even more
1,622.64
4.039
information like the student's Patronis
1,624.6
3.84
or magical spell or a whole bunch of
1,626.679
3.36
other information that might belong in a
1,628.44
3.959
student and right now we're just kind of
1,630.039
5.24
using these very general purpose data
1,632.399
5.321
types in Python a tuple to combine some
1,635.279
4.601
values together a list to do the same
1,637.72
4.64
but let us change it later a dictionary
1,639.88
4.159
which is more powerful because it's a
1,642.36
3.88
little more structured it does have keys
1,644.039
4.88
and it has values not just values but
1,646.24
4.48
you know what this we wouldn't have to
1,648.919
3.441
be having this conversation if the
1,650.72
4.04
authors of python had just given us a
1,652.36
5
data type called student right wouldn't
1,654.76
4.32
it have been nice if there were just a
1,657.36
3.52
type of variable I could create in my
1,659.08
3.92
code called student then we wouldn't
1,660.88
3.399
have to figure out well do we use a
1,663
3.919
tuple or a list or a dictionary but
1,664.279
4.361
that's pretty reasonable right you could
1,666.919
4.161
imagine just a how slippery of a slope
1,668.64
5.159
that is so to speak if the creators of a
1,671.08
4.68
language had to anticipate all the
1,673.799
3.681
possible types of data that Pro
1,675.76
2.919
programmers like you and me want to
1,677.48
3.679
store in your programs so they just gave
1,678.679
4.561
us these general purpose tools but they
1,681.159
4.481
gave us another general purpose tool
1,683.24
4.439
that's going to allow us to create our
1,685.64
4.519
own data types as well and actually give
1,687.679
5.681
them names and that uh terminology is a
1,690.159
6.041
class A Class is kind of like a
1,693.36
6
blueprint for pieces of data object so
1,696.2
5.8
to speak a class is kind of like a mold
1,699.36
4.919
that you can define and give a name and
1,702
4.12
when you use that mold or you use that
1,704.279
4.76
blueprint you get types of data that are
1,706.12
5.679
designed exactly as you want so in short
1,709.039
5.36
classes allow you to invent your own
1,711.799
5.12
data types in Python and give them a
1,714.399
5.28
name and this is a primary feature uh of
1,716.919
5.081
object-oriented programming to be able
1,719.679
4.24
to create your own objects in this way
1,722
4.039
and in the case of python and classes
1,723.919
4.801
even give them some custom names so what
1,726.039
4.601
does this mean in real terms well let me
1,728.72
4.439
go ahead and come back to VSS code here
1,730.64
4.24
and let me propose that we introduce a
1,733.159
3.721
little bit of new syntax I'm going to go
1,734.88
4
ahead and clear my terminal window first
1,736.88
