  Reference	Timestamp	Code
  Install Python Native API wheel file	1:40	pip install irisnative-1.0.0-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl
  Import InterSystems IRIS Native API into a Python script	2:03	import irisnative
  Create a connection to your instance	2:15	connection = irisnative.createConnection(<ip address>, <port>, <namespace>, <username>, <password>) iris_native = irisnative.createIris(connection)
  Set and get the value of a global node using the Native API for Python	2:44	iris_native.set(2, "^product", "Apple") apple_price = iris_native.get("^product", "Apple")
  Set and get the value of a global node using ObjectScript	2:59	set ^product("Apple") = 2 set apple_price = $get(^product("Apple"))
  Use the Native API to iterate over a global	3:05	subscript_iter = iris_native.iterator("^product") for subscript, value in subscript_iter: print("subscript = {}, value = {}".format(subscript, value))
  Use ObjectScript to iterate over a global	3:17	set subscript = "" for { set sub = $ORDER(^product(sub), 1, val) quit: (sub = "") write !, "The current price of ", sub, " is $", val }
  Use the Native API to call InterSystems IRIS class methods and routines	3:20	current_date = iris_native.classMethodValue("%Library.Utility", "Date", 5)
