Read/Write to External Files (Week 6)

We finished up with lists this week in programming.  The students worked really hard with a bioinformatics program that they wrote with Python.  It converts DNA to RNA, RNA to DNA, and calculates the base pairs for a partial strand of genetic information.  Next week we will finish up with dictionaries in Python.  We will then be ready to learn how to write Python programs that read and write to external files.
