Jason will be presenting “A simple search engine in Python” at 2:00PM Sunday (2/5) in the Auditorium. Let’s write a search engine from scratch in Python! We’ll see how search engines work. We’ll use Python dictionaries and lists in combination, work with text and binary files, even do a touch of math. And we’ll learn what makes a data store fast.
