METR1313 - Week 6 - Segment 4 (p1 / 2): Introduction to Python Modules and Trigonometry in Python

Modules (also known as "libraries" or "packages") are collections of functions and variables that we can bring into any Python program. One particularly useful module is the "math" module (demonstrated in this video), which allows us to evaluate complicated mathematical operations (e.g. sine, cosine, and logarithms). There are TONS of modules out there, each with their own unique functionalities. We will explore more of these modules as we go through this class.
