Knowing Python Will Make You a Better Programmer * * Come to Chicago to find out how * *
(http://www.dabeaz.com/chicago) David Beazley, author of the Python Essential Reference, is pleased to announce two unique Python training opportunities designed for programmers who want to take their Python programming skills to the next level. Introduction to Python May 11-13, 2009. ---------------------------------- A comprehensive hands-on course for programmers, scientists, and engineers who want to master the essential elements of Python programming in order to solve real-world problems in data processing, systems programming, and software integration. No prior Python experience is assumed. However, if you already know some Python, this course will reinforce what you already know, fill in gaps, and expand your knowledge of modern Python programming idioms. Python Concurrency Workshop May 14-15, 2009 ---------------------------------- The future is parallel. This one-of-kind workshop, designed for more experienced Python programmers, provides an in-depth examination of concurrent programming idioms and standard library modules. The aim of this workshop is to go far beyond the information found in the manual and to gain a deeper understanding of how different approaches work, their performance characteristics, limitations, and types of real-world problems for which they are suited. If you're looking to take your Python skills to an entirely new level of sophistication, then this workshop is for you. These classes are affordably priced and are held in downtown Chicago where you will be able to enjoy the springtime sights and sounds of one of the world's most vibrant cities. More information including pricing and logistics is available at: http://www.dabeaz.com/chicago Hopefully I'll see you in Chicago. --Dave -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html
