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. If you are new to programming, please join the beginners' evening class starting Jan 13: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=3576274&SectionID=5274048 and then take a Programmers' class. 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. Please come, and send students! Marilyn Davis, Ph.D. Python Instructor http://pythontrainer.com
