Dr. Jankun-Kelly will be teaching an informal, three-part tutorial on the Python Programming Language next week. The dates and topics are:

  • Tuesday 530-630: Basics
  • Wednesday 530-630: Advanced Features
  • Thursday 530-630: Useful Libraries

All classes will be in Butler (will shoot for BU 104 for now). Basic and object-oriented programming experience is assumed.

From the python.org site: "Python is a dynamic object-oriented programming language that can be used for many kinds of software development. It offers strong support for integration with other languages and tools, comes with extensive standard libraries, and can be learned in a few days. Many Python programmers report substantial productivity gains and feel the language encourages the development of higher quality, more maintainable code." Python is currently in use at NASA, Google, Industrial Light and Magic, and many others.
