Message-ID: <62171.67.169.187.91.1357942194.squirrel@mail.tigertech.net> Hi, ** Next Thursday we start a 9 week, 6-9:30 pm, Python For Programmers class at our labs at UCSC-Extension in Santa Clara, right across 101 from the Great America sign: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5272958 The Programmers' class is low-pressure, but fast-paced, where students learn and practice core concepts and Pythonic thinking. To join this class, you should be well-practiced at programming in some other language. No beginning programmers please, but you can certainly be new to Python. All our Python courses are hands-on with short lectures, and lots of exercises where we study the solutions after some lab time. Questions are always welcome; discussion and pair-programming are encouraged. ** If you are a true beginner, we have a better course for you: 6 Monday nights, 6-9pm, at the same place: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=3576274&SectionID=5272957 The Beginners' course will put you in good condition to take the Programmers' course at a later date. ** Finally, you might prefer the online course for Programmers. Registration ends on Feb 11 for this online "Python For Programmers" class. However, you can start today! http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5272956 The online class gets great reviews and allows you to learn at your own pace at home. Please come, and send students! Marilyn Davis, Ph.D. Python Instructor
