[Tutor] Using a dictionary to map functions

2016-04-26 Thread Colby Christensen
I am a novice self taught programmer learning with Python. I am working on a program to calculate coordinate geometry. The input file is a list of commands. A number is assigned to each command and followed by various inputs required to make the calculation. The input has the following format:
