So we literally had a classroom full of people. Due to technical difficulties, the first talk(Introduction to Selenium) has been postponed to the next meetup. *A gentle introduction to Generators and Coroutines - Kiran* *Gangadharan* - Explains what makes a generator function different from that of any normal function and why/how they should be used. - Talks about how coroutines are simply an enhanced version of generators, that can communicate with each other. *Introductions* - A curious bunch of people in general, some data mining and machine learning enthusiasts. - A few students trying out the language. - Our guest, Nathan, a Core contributor to Sage[1]. *Introduction to SQLAlchemy - Shrayas Rajagopal* - What is an ORM ? How does it help ? - Explains why ORM is important and how it helps you to deal with databases - Advantages and Disadvantages of ORM's (Leaky Abstractions-JS) - dbapi - A demo using iPython notebook to illustrate the use of sqlalchemy Vijay reminds the audience about our website[2] and mailing list. *Fun with Pandas - Sharmila Gopirajan* - 1st half - What Pandas is all about - datastructures and common operations - 2nd half - demo with real world dataset - interesting insights from the Crunchbase dataset - plotting the stats in a graph - Pandas makes it easy to get interesting insights about your data with very less code and the friendliness of Python - Author advocates Pandas Cookbook and SciPy conf(tutorial videos available online) Vijay gives his vote of thanks to everyone who helped with organizing the meetup. Next meetup most likely to be on Dec 20th.

This is definitely a good idea. I'm sure most of the regular dotfiles users would already have their dotfiles hosted someplace. I for example have it hosted here[1] on Github. How about this? We can instead collate this information and have it displayed somewhere on our page. This can be a place for anyone in the group to post their dotfiles. What do you think?

Oscar https://readthedocs.org/projects/django-oscar/ 3. Saleor http://getsaleor.com/ The features that I would like to have are 1. Custom payment integration. This is for India. so if an indian payment system is already integrated, that would be a plus. 2. Product reviews and rating 3. Product Customization and options 4. Dynamic filtering categories, like by color, by price, or by any other factor that we define 5. anonymous checkout 6. shipping slips 7. Intimating user about the status of the order (order confirmed, order shipped, shipment tracking, shipment delivery) 8. Promoting related products 9. Custom shipping rates 10.

Hi All, Had a discussion with Vijay on if i'll be able to incorporate this in the 10 minute interval. I think not. I have a re-proposal. Here it is. # Talk 1 Talk Title: Python and its Functions Short Description: Functions in python are First class. They can be passed to and from functions. They can be created inside other functions and a lot more. This talk proposes to introduce this concept. # Talk 2 (If time permits) Talk Title: Application of Talk 1 - Decorators Short Description: Decorators are an interesting way of doing some magic with functions in Python. Talk 1 will set the base for this. If time permits and people are interested, we can see an application of Talk 1 VIZ Decorators. Decorators are a concept that is gaining widespread use in Python because it is just that easy to read. This talk proposes to give an introduction to them.

Shrikant mailed me before he posted this to the list. One thing he missed out (or was not explicit about) in the mail he sent to the mailing list, was that he wanted a Pythonista (or atleast somebody interested in Python) as his room mate. I approved it, my only requirement was to add an [OT] to the subject. Do you still think it is not OK to post such a request to a local Python user group mailing list?

But I find this quite inspiring Dear (insert name here), I heard you enjoy a certain programming language named Python. Programming is a wonderful activity. I am a little jealous that you have access to computers at your age; when I grew up I didn't even know what a computer was! I was an electronics hobbyist though, and my big dream was to build my own electronic calculator from discrete components. I never did do that, but I did build several digital clocks, and it was amazing to build something that complex and see it work. I hope you dream big too -- programmers can make computers (and robots!) do amazing things, and this is a great time to become a programmer. Just imagine how much faster computers will be in five or ten years, and what you will be able to do with your skills then! --Guido van Rossum Source : http://neopythonic.blogspot.in/2013/10/letter-to-young-programmer.html?m=1 Thanks, Sangeeth -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

But with lightning talks this might not be the most appropriate talk type. One of the reasons is that, 10 min might not be sufficient to discuss the topic. Especially with varying levels of audience, the speaker has to provide sufficient background on the subject before discussing the topic at hand. So what type of talks are most suited? One type of lightning talk that are preferable, are the ones that look like a magic trick. You show something that will WOW the audience and they will go back home and try it out. For example if you want to talk about Generators, instead of talking about it, your slides should show two programs one using generators and another without, and provide the stats on the memory usage. And then you provide a link to a nice article on Generators. Now people will be more motivated to to follow the link and learn about Generators, on their own. Instead of trying to teach the audience in 10min, you motivate them in 10min, and provide a link to a nice article. And they will be learning things on their own. HTH.

Both newbies and advanced users, in the audience will find it useful. == Needle in a Haystack One of the problems today with the Internet is that, there is huge amount of information around and finding the good stuff is hard. This problem has been partly solved by things like "Stars" in GitHub and social bookmarking. Any help with this will be appreciated by the audience. So here are some ideas: 1. Look at your "Star" list on GitHub, select 5 Python projects and tell us why you liked them. 2. Look at your bookmarks for StackOverflow questions, select 5 questions related to Python and give us a short intro to each. 3. An Active State Python recipe that you found interesting. 4. A well written Python project, that you came across, that you would like to recommend to other newbies. == Call for Help and Support If you have started an open source Python project or you are contributing to an existing open source project, and you are looking for other developers to join you, you can talk about your project and why you think it is important. And you can inspire others to join you.

Another suggested topic could be demo-ing a script or a useful program you hacked together to scratch your own itch (maybe a web crawler or an IRC bot or.. ). I'm sure people would be interested in those. Shrikant Giridhar -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I'm sure people would be interested in those. That was exactly what I was going to post next! Often times at work, we build tools and utilities to fix or workaround issues that we face. These might be just throw away scripts, or the scripts might not be generic enough to be published. But they could contain sufficient hack value, and might be interesting to the audience. You might want to consider talking about them. Who knows, it could trigger people to spin-off a more complete and generic version of the script..

But most books do not cover things like * Coding style * Best Practices * Application of Design Patterns * Writing Docstrings * Organizing code for unit testing * Setting up a CI * Buidling Documentation * Packaging * Changelogs * Version Numbering * Supporting multiple Python versions These are things people acquire, in the course of working on a project, developing code and by reading code written by other people. But not many open source projects are suitable for newbies. I propose to start a project, on GitHub, that will be based on a program in the book "Invent with Python". Since the book is for beginners, the code is not very elegant. We will improve to make it look more professional, add unit test cases, document it, package it, release it, etc. Newbies can easily start with it, because the initial code is completely explained in the book! Project mentor(s) will be creating issues on the project, for each task to be done, whoever is interested can submit a pull request against the issue. The project mentor(s) will review the pull request and provide suggestions for improvement. To start, I can play that role, hope other mentors to join in :-) In my opinion such a project will be useful both beginners and intermediate users. Even advanced users can learn a thing or two from it. What do you guys think? Will it be helpful to you? If you think this will be useful to you, please reply with a +1. If there are atleast three +1s, I will create the project on GitHub.

We will be taking only one program, say for example the Tic-Tac-Toe game, and will be creating a project for it.

Creating a project for every problem may be excessive. I would not want to install so many different packages one by one. For maintainers as well, it will be difficult, let's say, if the book has 50 examples. I can suggest one package which includes all the examples, perhaps grouped into meaningful subpackages.

But most books do not cover things like * Coding style * Best Practices * Application of Design Patterns * Writing Docstrings * Organizing code for unit testing * Setting up a CI * Buidling Documentation * Packaging * Changelogs * Version Numbering * Supporting multiple Python versions These are things people acquire, in the course of working on a project, developing code and by reading code written by other people. But not many open source projects are suitable for newbies. I propose to start a project, on GitHub, that will be based on a program in the book "Invent with Python". Since the book is for beginners, the code is not very elegant. We will improve to make it look more professional, add unit test cases, document it, package it, release it, etc. Newbies can easily start with it, because the initial code is completely explained in the book! Project mentor(s) will be creating issues on the project, for each task to be done, whoever is interested can submit a pull request against the issue. The project mentor(s) will review the pull request and provide suggestions for improvement. To start, I can play that role, hope other mentors to join in :-) In my opinion such a project will be useful both beginners and intermediate users. Even advanced users can learn a thing or two from it. What do you guys think? Will it be helpful to you? If you think this will be useful to you, please reply with a +1. If there are atleast three +1s, I will create the project on GitHub.

Thanks for all the enthusiastic response. A project has been created with the initial code from the book. See https://github.com/Chennaipy/hangman A couple of issues have been created to start with. Will be adding more issues shortly.

There are many tech communities, meetup groups, social friends group etc conducting regular events. Check the Event calendar of Chennai https://chennaieventscalendar.wordpress.com/calendar/ All the weekends are filled with events. Once meetup.com became free, there are groups started for most of the software in the industry. But, many groups cannot make the events as they could not find the venue. *Option A:* ======= Thinking a Hacker Space kind of venue, where any user group can conduct their events. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace The following are the ideas : 1. A small home in a accessible venue in chennai 2. Any user group can conduct the events for free 3. Venue can have broadband and Projector/LCD TV 4. Table/Chairs can be there or can be rented *How to generate money?* 1. Donations should be collected to give the rent 2.

Kinda like talk wish list Hi Venkatesh, Thanks for the tip. Here are my thoughts: * Speakers generally speak on what has got them excited. I think that's how it should be. * We could have a more generic list of topics, instead of a wish list, to give people ideas on what they can talk about. * I think we can expand on http://www.bravegnu.org/blog/lightning-talks.html and add a page to Chennaipy's website.

If you would like to participate in this activity, the first thing to do would be to add yourself to the watch list of the project. That way, you will get notifications when new issues are created. To start watching now click on https://github.com/Chennaipy/hangman/subscription 2. Even if you do not have time to write code, you can add yourself to the watch list, and read through the changes being submitted. You can learn a lot from changes and the discussions. 3. Each issue after being created, will be available for people to contribute for a period of 1 week. If there are no takers within this period, the issue will be fixed by the mentor itself. This is being done to maintain the tempo of the activity. The current set of issues will be available for period of 1 week from today. I have a few projects in mind, that we will be doing, one after the other. The tentative roadmap is provided below: * Hangman (current) - Game based on code from "Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python" * libcipher - A collection of not so useful cipher algorithms from "Hacking Secret Ciphers with Python". This project will strive be an example of a well written Python library package. * Simulate - A clone of Simon from "Making Games with Python & Pygame". The code will be ported over to Kivy, so that it runs on Android and other platforms supported by Kivy. If things turn out well, we might even do some larger games. It will help us understand how to split large programs into smaller unit testable submodules. And also how to do things like integration testing, and managing requirements.

But we are not there yet, we need to build the community. Such a page will be helpful in the sense that it will break the entry barrier for anyone to give lightning talks. It will also be helpful for regular speakers. What do you think?

It is just an encouragement for the community. But then again people become wishful and get discouraged if their topic isn't taken up . So a better approach will be to keep stacking the topics for people interested in giving talks and not making it public to general audience, but taken from audience . Or something similar.
