- \frametitle{GCD script}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Function that computes gcd of two numbers
- \item Save it as \texttt{gcd\_script.py}
- \end{itemize}
- \begin{lstlisting}
- def gcd(a, b):
- while b:
- a, b = b, a%b
- return a
- \end{lstlisting}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Also add the tests to the file
- \end{itemize}
- \begin{lstlisting}
- if gcd(40, 12) == 4 and gcd(12, 13) == 1:
- print "Everything OK"
- else:
- print "The GCD function is wrong"

- \frametitle{Python path}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item In IPython type the following
- \end{itemize}
- \begin{lstlisting}
- import sys
- sys.path
- \end{lstlisting}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item List of locations where python searches for a module
- \item \texttt{import sys} -- searches for file \texttt{sys.py} or
- dir \texttt{sys} in all these locations
- \item So, our own modules can be in any one of the locations
- \item Current working directory is one of the locations
- \end{itemize}

- \frametitle{\texttt{\_\_name\_\_}}
- \begin{lstlisting}
- import gcd_script
- \end{lstlisting}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item The import is successful
- \item But the test code, gets run
- \item Add the tests to the following \texttt{if} block
- \end{itemize}
- \begin{lstlisting}
- if __name__ == "__main__":
- \end{lstlisting}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Now the script runs properly
- \item As well as the import works; test code not executed
- \item \texttt{\_\_name\_\_} is local to every module and is equal
- to \texttt{\_\_main\_\_} only when the file is run as a script.
- \end{itemize}
