  \frametitle{Example: Managing Talks}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item A list of talks at a conference
  \item We want to manage the details of the talks
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    talk = {'Speaker': 'Guido van Rossum', 
            'Title': 'The History of Python'
            'Tags': 'python,history,C,advanced'} 

    def get_first_name(talk):
        return talk['Speaker'].split()[0]

    def get_tags(talk):
        return talk['Tags'].split(',')
  \end{lstlisting}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Not convenient to handle large number of talks
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Objects and Methods}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Objects group data with the procedures/functions
  \item A single entity called \texttt{object}
  \item Everything in Python is an object
  \item Strings, Lists, Functions and even Modules
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    s = "Hello World"
    s.lower()

    l = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    l.append(6)
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Objects \ldots}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Objects provide a consistent interface
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    for element in (1, 2, 3):
        print element
    for key in {'one':1, 'two':2}:
        print key
    for char in "123":
        print char
    for line in open("myfile.txt"):
        print line
    for line in urllib2.urlopen('http://site.com'):
        print line
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Classes}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item A new string, comes along with methods
  \item A template or a blue-print, where these definitions lie
  \item This blue print for building objects is called a
    \texttt{class}
  \item \texttt{s} is an object of the \texttt{str} class
  \item An object is an ``instance'' of a class
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    s = "Hello World"
    type(s)
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Defining Classes}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item A class equivalent of the talk dictionary
  \item Combines data and methods into a single entity
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    class Talk:
        """A class for the Talks."""

        def __init__(self, speaker, title, tags):
            self.speaker = speaker
            self.title = title
            self.tags = tags

        def get_speaker_firstname(self):
            return self.speaker.split()[0]

        def get_tags(self):
            return self.tags.split(',')
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{\texttt{class} block}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Defined just like a function block
  \item \texttt{class} is a keyword
  \item \texttt{Talk} is the function name
  \item Classes also come with doc-strings
  \item All the statements of within the class are inside the block
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    class Talk:
        """A class for the Talks."""

        def __init__(self, speaker, title, tags):
            self.speaker = speaker
            self.title = title
            self.tags = tags
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{\texttt{self}}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Every method has an additional first argument, \texttt{self}
  \item \texttt{self} is a reference to the object itself, of which
    the method is a part of
  \item Variables of the class are referred to as \texttt{self.variablename}
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
        def get_speaker_firstname(self):
            return self.speaker.split()[0]

        def get_tags(self):
            return self.tags.split(',')
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{Instantiating a Class}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Creating objects or instances of a class is simple
  \item We call the class name, with arguments as required by it's
    \texttt{\_\_init\_\_} function. 
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    bdfl = Talk('Guido van Rossum', 
                'The History of Python', 
                'python,history,C,advanced')
  \end{lstlisting}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item We can now call the methods of the Class
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    bdfl.get_tags()
    bdfl.get_speaker_firstname()
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile]
  \frametitle{\texttt{\_\_init\_\_} method}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item A special method 
  \item Called every time an instance of the class is created
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    print bdfl.speaker
    print bdfl.tags
    print bdfl.title
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}[fragile, allowframebreaks]
  \frametitle{Inheritance}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Suppose, we wish to write a \texttt{Tutorial} class
  \item It's almost same as \texttt{Talk} except for minor differences
  \item We can ``inherit'' from \texttt{Talk}
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    class Tutorial(Talk):
        """A class for the tutorials."""

        def __init__(self, speaker, title, tags, handson=True):
            Talk.__init__(self, speaker, title, tags)
            self.handson = handson

        def is_handson(self):
            return self.handson
  \end{lstlisting}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Modified \texttt{\_\_init\_\_} method
  \item New \texttt{is\_handson} method
  \item It also has, \texttt{get\_tags} and
    \texttt{get\_speaker\_firstname} 
  \end{itemize}
  \begin{lstlisting}
    numpy = Tutorial('Travis Oliphant', 
                     'Numpy Basics', 
                     'numpy,python,beginner')
    numpy.is_handson()
    numpy.get_speaker_firstname()
  \end{lstlisting}

  \frametitle{Summary}
  In this section we have learnt,
  \begin{itemize}
  \item the fundamental difference in paradigm, between Object Oriented
    Programming and Procedural Programming
  \item to write our own classes
  \item to write new classes that inherit from existing classes
  \end{itemize}
