Data inside data: Library Cards

Run a small library's records. Real information comes in layers, so your data can too.

What you'll learn

• A list of dictionaries
• Looping over the records
• Finding the ones you want
• Adding a record
• A dictionary of lists
• Losing track of the level

Each idea opens with a short narrated video, about 2 minutes in all. Then you put it to work in the game.

The six levels

1. Read a Card Change it
2. Every Title Copy and type
3. By This Author Fill the gap
4. New Book, New Loan Write it
5. Wrong Way Round Fix it
6. The Monthly Report Boss level

The levels go from changing one word, to writing the code on your own. The boss level changes every time you play.
