Questions from Week 1

The interface feels very similar to the Processing interface, and I didn't realise how little difference there is between Python and Java. This leads me to ask: why not Java? Why don't we just use Processing for this?

Secondly, please could you give an example of when this is used for long text editing, of a length that requires a .txt file?

Third question is why does Python not differentiate between '' and ""? Being used to Java, where '' denotes char and "" is for strings, I find it odd to be able to use them interchangeably.
