Why we are including this example

Sometimes point values don't completely convey a student's progress or skillset. A student is not necessarily proficient with averaged points and it may need to be conveyed to the student what their skill level really is. Grades based on A, B, C, D is another way to show if the student is proficient. We replaced the points with letter grades in rubrics. Since Canvas still requires points, we still added point values.

Instructions

Answer the following questions. Use Chapter 2 of your textbook as the reference. Be brief with only a few sentences, but be complete.

1. What modules in Python exist for interacting with a file system or OS in a cross-platform way? List 3 with a 1-sentence description of what they do.

2. Where does Python look for modules to load?

3. How can you find out what modules are currently loaded while a program is running?

4. What steps happen when you load a module using import?

5. What is the most difficult part of making a shareable package using PyPA guidelines?

Grading

Each answer is graded qualitatively using the rubric below. The score out of 10 for the assignment is given as follows: Mostly A's = 9-10, mostly B's = 7-8 , mostly C's = 6-5, mostly D's = 4, mostly E's = 0-3
