* Objectives
  At the end of this tutorial, you will be able to, 
   - invoke the ~ipython~ interpreter.
   - quit the ~ipython~ interpreter.
   - navigate in the history of ~ipython~.
   - use tab-completion.
   - look-up documentation of functions.
   - interrupt incomplete or incorrect commands.
* Question 1
  1. Type =ab= and hit tab to see what happens.
  2. Next, just type =a= and hit tab to see what happens.
* Question 2
  Look-up the documentation of =round= and see how to use it
* Question 3
  Check the output of
  #+begin_src python
    round(2.48)
    round(2.48, 1)
    round(2.48, 2)
    
    round(2.484)
    round(2.484, 1)
    round(2.484, 2)
  #+end_src 
* Solution 3
  We get 2.0, 2.5 and 2.48, which are what we expect. 
* Question 4
  1. Type =round(2.484=, and hit enter and then cancel the command
     using Ctrl-C.
  2. Then, type the command, =round(2.484, 2)= and resume
     the video.
* Summary
  In this tutorial, we have learnt to –
   - invoke the ~ipython~ interpreter by typing ipython. 
   - quit the ~ipython~ interpreter by using ~Ctrl-d~. 
   - navigate in the history of ~ipython~ by using the arrow keys. 
   - use tab-completionto work faster. 
   - see the documentation of functions using question mark.
   - interrupt using ~Ctrl-c~ when we make an error.
* Evaluation

  1. Which key combination quits ``ipython``?

     - Ctrl + C
     - Ctrl + D
     - Alt + C
     - Alt + D

  2. Which character is used at the end of a command, in Ipython to
     display the documentation.

    - under score (_)
    - question mark (?)
    - exclamation mark (!)
    - ampersand (&)
* Solutions
    
  1. Ctrl + D

  2. question mark (?)
