<p>What we wanted to do before was save some of the stuff we had
tried out on the interpreter window. Let's do that by typing (or

One big thing to notice
is that we're careful to get rid of the "<tt>>>></tt>"

<p>As we play with Python, we'll find ourselves "switching modes"

if we try anything more complicated than two or three lines it
! is often a good idea to work in an edit window, and align
your edit and output window such that you can see them at the same time.</p>
