[arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
Hello, The class Python for Beginners - Part 1 will be held on Wednesday, October 04, 2017 at 16:00 UTC in the channel #archlinux-classroom on the freenode network. The class is expected to run for about 2 hours. This class will introduce you to programming with Python and how to use IPython with an editor/IDE. Commonly used built-in functions and libraries will be explained. Other topics will explored based on participant interests. The class will be screen-shared live (via YouTube), and later archived with subtitles. Questions and some discussion on IRC is expected, however the main part will be video and audio. In preparation for the class, install the Jupyter notebook. ``pacman -S jupyter`` or, in a Python 3 virtualenv, ``pip3 install jupyter``. Also check out the python-beginners git repository on Arch Classroom's GitHub[1] where you will find IPython notebooks and links to useful resources on learning Python: https://github.com/archclassroom/python-beginners pulec is an Arch Linux user since 2012, gamer and gardener. He makes a living using Linux and Python since 2013 and recently joined Red Hat. He hopes to spread IT knowledge and open source ideas to the general populace. Some code - https://github.com/Pulecz
Won't install anything. Can't you do better than that? On Sep 29, 2017 17:28, "fsckd via arch-general" <arch-general@archlinux.org> wrote:

Hi all, For learning purposes, you should be happy enough with https://www.pythonanywhere.com/try-ipython/ and for some graphs later https://try.jupyter.org/. However, we will use some packages from https://pypi.python.org/pypi and you will need at least python, python-pip and python-virtualenv (not python2). Looking forward to tomorrow evening.

Since my first lecture, I am always providing this Virtual Box image with basic Arch Linux with xfce4, nobody wants to build python3 on some outdated Red Hat distro. Its meant mostly for people without Arch, but It might work for you as well Randy. Here is the *.ova file https://mega.nz/#!wAEEna4Q which should most VirtualBox versions be able to import and run.

Session #1 is finished, I am still going over the material and I will make one more offline recording to summarize session #1, which should be shorter then the whole livestream. Results will be linked in README.md on the github https://github.com/ archclassroom/python-beginners with the ipython notebook from the session. Anyone interested in continuing the Python education, here is the link for a poll to pick an ideal date for *session #2* https://framadate.org/archpyb- poll-2. *Deadline for voting is on 10th of November,* so that means that the days in a poll from 1st to 10th are useless... Managing all this seems harder then I imagined. On Sat, Oct 21, 2017 at 10:04 PM, Brett Gilio <contact@brettgilio.com> wrote:

After more then half a year I am reviving the python classes, so anyone who haven't had luck to join back in autumn now is there time to join again. The plan is to start on 27th of June, Wednesday 7:00 UTC. Contents will be similar, but hopefully better. On Mon, Oct 30, 2017 at 1:06 PM Tomáš M. <pulec.mcm@gmail.com> wrote:

As a rule of thumb, time of day would be given in 24 hour time if nothing else is specified. cheers! mar77i Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email.
That's 7AM UTC, 8AM CET. Whole thing will be recorded on youtube livestream + hopefully edited and polished + its transcript on wiki. So its not really necesearry to attend at the time, but people on IRC asking questions will be very welcomed, since its how the classroom should work. We will try to do 2h session, in last attempt we covered data types basics and some for loops I think so that should be enough at first. In following 14 days there should be some video with intro presentation covering some basics about python, why and what will be covering and some things to get started with.
