A good list. Even more important, though, is the installation, use and
understanding of a text editor. What is the difference of MS Word,
Notepad and a Python-aware text editor? What text editors are there?
What is a newline? What is whitespace? (Advanced: what is a TAB.) What
is the difference between lower case and upper case? What is trailing
whitespace? What is an underscore? What is the difference between a
parenthesis, bracket and a brace?
What is a file? What is a filename? What is a directory/folder? What is
a pathname? What is a terminal (emulator)? What is standard input? What
is standard output?
How do I see the listing of files? How do I erase a file? How do I
rename a file? What is the current working directory? How do I change it
and why?
