Introduction to Python
The metabolic modelling we will be using, ScrumPy, is written in Python. Python is a high-level, object-oriented, interpreted programming language, it has a lange standard library, and supports multiple programming paradigms. It is also syntactically clear and easy to learn. This is a very brief introduction to some of the basic features of the language, for a more complete introduction to the topic, see Lutz & Ascher, "Learning Python" O'Reilly Media inc. (Edition 2 or greater).
Getting started
We will be using Python from the ScrumPy environment.
