The class is will low-pressure, but fast paced, where students learn and practice core concepts and Pythonic thinking. Bring your laptop, or use our spiffy machines. The lab courses are hands-on. After each short lecture, students are given lab time and exercises that provide practice with the new concepts. Next, a new material set is distributed which contains solutions to the lab exercises and notes for the next short lecture, and the next set of lab exercises. Questions are always welcome; discussion and pair-programming is encouraged. There are usually five lectures and labs per day, and 2 quizzes to help solidify some key details.
