these courses are for people with some pretty significant programming experience. Day 1 was ok and then on day 2 he took some major leaps and bounds. Horrible "teaching."
Good course, after this lecture I managed to write a script that prints the current temperature in my home town once every tenth minute (temperature extracted from a web page).
The only thing I don't like about these vids is that he spent near-hours for the most simplistic modules, and then only 20-min snippets barely covering more complex modules. He got me going at this slower pace and then sped it up on me D:
Never the less, a great series <3
Kind of killed by people who can't experiment by themselves or pay fucking attention during a class and waste time by asking stupid questions.
Tip: it's better to use a set instead of a dictionary for storing image urls for this exercise, since you only need to store keys and not key->value pairs. See the Python documentation on Data Structures for more information.
@fsl4faisal Not sure if you're still looking for this ... but for the second puzzle the filename has this format: *-****-****.jpg ... you want to sort by only the last part before .jpg
for those wondering, all the images for the exercise have been moved to code.google.com. the paths in the apache log file should be appended to that URL instead of to corp.google.com.

That poor guy at 7:40 asked a question that Nick repeated, but still didn't answer correctly. He was asking if the program "prints" to a buffer or something that gets dumped to the screen after the program finishes running (which wouldn't happen if there was an error). Python fortunately doesn't do that. I can see why Nick was confused because it was a pretty goofy question that could've been easily tested with a couple lines of code.
THIS IS the shit ;)

So, for example, in Python 3 do this:
import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlretrieve( someURL, someFileName )

Python 3 moves urlopen, urlretrieve, etc., to the "request" sub-module of urllib
