+* Outline
+  - Slicing strings to get sub-strings
+  - Reversing strings
+  - Replacing characters in strings. 
+  - Converting strings to upper or lower case
+  - Joining a list of strings
+* Question 1
+  Obtain the sub-string excluding the first and last characters from
+  the string ~s~.
+* Solution 1
+  #+begin_src python
+    In []:  s[1:-1]
+  #+end_src
+* Question 2
+  Given a list week, week = ~week = ["sun", "mon", "tue", "wed",
+  "thu", "fri", "sat"]~. Check if ~s~ is a valid name of a day of the
+  week. Change the solution to this problem, to include forms like,
+  SAT, SATURDAY, Saturday and Sat.
+* Solution 2
+  #+begin_src python
+    In []:  s in week
+    In []:  s.lower()[:3] in week
+  #+end_src
+* Question 3
+  Given ~email~ -- ~info@fossee[dot]in~
+
+  Replace the ~[dot]~ with ~.~ in ~email~
+* Solution 3
+  #+begin_src python
+    email.replace('[dot], '.')
+    print email
+  #+end_src
+* Question 4
+  From the ~email_str~ that we generated, change the separator to be a
+  semicolon instead of a comma.
+* Solution 4
+  #+begin_src python
+    email_str = email_str.replace(",", ";")
+  #+end_src
+* Summary
+  You should now be able to --
+  - Slice strings and get sub-strings out of them
+  - Reverse strings
+  - Replace characters in strings. 
+  - Convert strings to upper or lower case
+  - Join a list of strings
+
+* Thank you!
