Python is a high-level language that can be extended in C really easily, making it good for rapidly experimenting with many algorithms, and then optimizing the hotspots in the resulting prototype. We will cover basic python programming (see, e.g. http://python.org/doc/current/tut/tut.html) followed by either writing C extensions for python, or the python web application zope, depending on interest.
