Huh?

3 lines of python code were supplied to you. You're designing this thing,
you have identified your nine commands.

Surely therefore you know what these commands can do.

So why can't you simply provide some sample code (using the VIC commands)
that should do the same as the supplied Python code?

f = open("myfile.txt")
l = f.readlines()
print len(l), " lines"

would translate to precisely what code in VIC?

Or is the above saying that the code would actually be written in Python
after all, and VIC is just used to run it?
