It has been recently pointed out to me that most Python tutorials make
too much emphasis on the interpreter. This gives students the mistaken
impression that it's a good idea to program at the interpreter prompt.
I like that the swc makes a greater emphasis on files and printing the
results, even though it uses cat to edit files.
