GIS5103 - GIS Programming - Module 1


The very first Module in my GiS programming course focused on becoming acquainted with Python on the most basic level. We were provided with a script that would create all data folders needed for this course on our S drive. Above is a screenshot of my S drive after successfully running the script.


(Lab notes:  )
Part I – I located the CreateModuleFolders.py script and copied it into my documents folder on the S drive. I opened it with PythonWin to take a look at the general layout, but did not see much of anything that I could understand, but all seemed to check out when I compared it to the directions.

I clicked the mouse cursos inside the script and pressed CTRL+R to run it. Waited a few seconds for the script to execute, and went to my S drive to check. I saw that there was indeed a new folder for the course, containing folders for all 12 Modules for the semester.

I made sure that I had several windows open at once, (to show my Name, the main folders location as well as the 12 sub folders) and took a screen scot by pressing the Prt Scr button. I saved in in my Module 1 folder as a Jpeg file.
