Welcome to the Auroville Institute of Applied Technology Coding Notes. These were written by Andreas Patuzzi, with the primary focus of enabling first-year colleague students to learn Python.
Department/Exam Relevance
Each note/page has hashtags # to categorize its content and link it with other topics.
The hashtags #SDML, #AECD, and GEES inform you if this page is relevant for a specific department.
These notes also include a few additional details that are not directly exam relevant, more advanced, or rarely used. On the page itself, you will find a Todo Info box before topics that are not exam relevant, partly relevant, or only relevant for a specific department. Inside you sometimes also have details for whom/what this is topic is relevant. Here is an example.
less exam relevant
Less exam relevant, but still good/helpful to know. There are use cases like…
So all topics that are not exam relevant for all departments listed in the hashtags will have an infobox that explains if and for whom they are exam relevant. If an infobox like this is at the start of a header/topic, it applies to the whole topic and all subtopics. If it is in the middle of a topic, it applies to the rest of the topic or only a small part and you will find details in the description.
Code Examples
Most topics include short examples in a code block. You will find the output print() functions as a line comment directly after ->. Alternatively, the output can also be in its own code block. If the code involves user input either the input is marked with {?} or an example value will be given and used.
