Join us for "Scientific Computing with Python Webinar"

[Travis Oliphant]

Hello all Python users:

I am pleased to announce the beginning of a free Webinar series that  
discusses using Python for scientific computing.   Enthought will host  
this free series  which will take place once a month for 30-45  
minutes.   The schedule and length may change based on participation  
feedback, but for now it is scheduled for the fourth Friday of every  
month.     This free webinar should not be confused with the EPD  
webinar on the first Friday of each month which is open only to  
subscribers to the Enthought Python Distribution.

I (Travis Oliphant) will be the first speaker at this continuing  
series.  I plan to present a brief (10-15) minute talk on reading  
binary files with NumPy using memory mapped arrays and structured data- 
types.  This talk will be followed by a demonstration of Chaco for  
interactive 2-d visualization and Mayavi for interactive 3-d  
visualization.   Both Chaco and Mayavi are open-source tools and part  
of the Enthought Tool Suite.  They can be conveniently installed using  
the Enthought Python Distribution.   Topics for future webinars will  
be chosen later based on participant feedback.

This event will take place on Friday at 3:00pm CDT and will last 30 to  
45 minutes depending on questions asked.   Space is limited at this  
event.   If you would like to participate, please register by going to https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/422340144 
  or by clicking on the appropriate link in the attached announcement.

There will be a 10 minute technical help session prior to the on-line  
meeting which you should plan to use if you have never participated in  
a GoToWebinar previously.  During this time you can test your  
connection and audio equipment as well as familiarize yourself with  
the GoTo Meeting software.

I am looking forward to interacting with many of you this Friday.

Best regards,

Travis Oliphant
