But I haven't been able to gather any information about any meetings planned for this month or last couple of months. Do we plan to have a meeting this month or have we already had one? By the way I am not sure how the group is managed but if its mailman I think you can have a scheduled mail . So we could setup a scheduled mail on the first of every month for planning out the meeting. That way you know what you are looking for in case you have not been able to catch up on your email.

The meetings have been very erratic, I am not aware of any meeting the last couple of months (Please correct me if I am wrong). We decided on second saturdays as a tentative meeting time. However there is a bit of a lack of proper set of rules, consensus for things like:: *- Where should the meeting be held? * Problem: we need a central place that every one would be comfortable with that is kept as a backup; i.e. in case no other place get's finalised in time, then we go for the backup place. *- No automated mail/reminder about the meetings of the group.* Can we use meetup.com? Many other groups seem to have good success with this. - *Topic, time management for the meeting.* We, should keep 15 minutes in the middle of the meetup as break time for snacks and for deciding on the next meetup details like when, where, next topic ...etc. - *book/record keeping* People who miss the meetup would like to get a overview/highlights of what was discussed, what important decisions were taken and what time, place and topic was decided for the next meetup. Some one would need to take up the responsibility to jot these things down and post them in the group for those who couldn't attend. These are just sugestions, would help if others chimed in with their ideas, suggestions.

We keep thinking that someone else will post about the meeting and i will just go and attend that and finally no one does that. Gora has already said this many times that anyone can announce the meeting and depending upon the response we can plan the venue and other things.

I mean we shouldn't meet just to meet. It should have some good agenda and if someone has, he shouldn't hesitate to announce the meeting. -- Regards RAKESH KUMAR http://www.raakeshkumar.in -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have done some research but can not conclude which one is best. So the requirement is: I have an application and have 3-4 excel documents in specified format(expecting 1 Million of rows). I have to upload it and save into some tables and run some calculation against data base values. After that it will present me with some numbers/chart based on calculations. So my first question is, how should i select my database technology which will stand better in this scenario. I found that MySql can perform read operations perfectly in these scenario but if someone can help me understand it properly? I also read that Postgre is a better choice in terms of reliability and for a better structure, although i am not sure. Second question is how much time will it take to upload 1 million rows of data from Excel, considering there will be 6 columns? Or how can i optimize to speed up read and write operations for such a large data.

One solution > i can think of is to use Hadoop but need guidance on this too. Your question makes little sense. 1 million rows in 3-4 Excel documents? Your bottle-neck would be Excel, which would very likely crash and burn at well below the capacity you want. You could use postgres, mysql, mariadb, sqlite, JimBob's excellent DB, and probably even stone tablets as the database back-end :-) Would not make any difference. If you want a real free/open DB, use Postgres Regards From kumar3180 at gmail.com Mon May 12 21:23:00 2014 From: kumar3180 at gmail.com (Raakesh kumar) Date: Tue, 13 May 2014 00:53:00 +0530 Subject: [Ncr-Python.in] [ILUGD] Which technology is better for large database calculations In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: [...] On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 12:31 AM, Saurabh Kumar wrote: > You should probably consider pandas and using it's HDF5 store [1].

I found that MySql can perform read operations perfectly in these scenario but if someone can help me understand it properly? I also read that Postgre is a better choice in terms of reliability and for a better structure, although i am not sure. *A: First thing you have to decide, you want to do the calculation on DB or in programming language.* *If in DB then MySQL can handle the calculation the complex queries if its properly designed and well indexed. From my own experience I'm currently working with DB more than 8 million records in 10 tables, 150+ columns. You have to break into units for calculations.* *If in programming language then fetching the records and then performing the calculation is going to take more time. So basically you have to finish all the calculation in DB using mysql quries. As I'm thinking your summary which will be generated is not going to be large as compare to DB.* *You can use TokuDB instead of InnoDB for better performance in MySQL.* Second question is how much time will it take to upload 1 million rows of data from Excel, considering there will be 6 columns? Or how can i optimize to speed up read and write operations for such a large data. *A: Inserting records from Excel Workbook/CSV is not going to take more than 5 mins if using tuned MySQL with TokuDB with a basic server of 24GB RAM with Xeon Processors. * Third, What are the technologies at application development level (programming level), i can use to achieve a better performance.

As to the appropriate place for the info, If there is a better Idea provided by some one else then one can simply adjust /start doing things that way. Until that time I suggest going forward and doing it the way you mention. You can always change, improve things as time goes on.

I think this can be very helpful to create awareness about python in Delhi NCR. So what say guys should we make up a team to do such a event??? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: vijay kumar Date: Sun, May 18, 2014 at 5:23 PM Subject: [Inpycon] Initiative for mini conferences across India To: Mailing list for the PyCon India conference Hi All, I was thinking from long time on the concerns we are facing in PyCon India. I think we should concentrate to solve these issues as it might be hindrance to our growth in upcoming years. We don?t have enough Volunteer base for PyCon India in cities other than Bangalore and we are restricted to conduct conference in Bangalore. Though there are potential people who can take this forward they don?t have enough experience in organizing an event like PyCon India and it requires contribution from lot more people and we need good volunteer base. To maintain the quality of talks in PyCon India we have previous experience as one of our selection criteria. But there may be speakers who are technically solid but he would not have experience presenting it to a good number of audience becuase of which his talk might not get selected. I think it would be a better idea to conduct one day mini conference in different cities across India to provide solution to the concerns. Please find my inputs below on the same. We can look for a chair person in each city who are willing to take responsibility to organize a conference which in turn will help them understand what it takes to organize an event like PyCon India. These conferences will provide platform to new speakers and also others to showcase their talent so they can prepare themselves well for PyCon India. To start with, we can have a day event in a college so that we don?t need to bare the venue expense and we would get an opportunity to create awareness about Python and create volunteer base. The registration fee and the sponsorship amount may be considerably less just to manage the food expense. If in a city they are not able to get considerable number of sponsors ,PSSI can share considerable amount to help organize the event. If we don?t have enough speakers in a local user group, PSSI can help them get a speaker from other cities and provide their travel expense if required. Overall it helps PyCon India to create awareness and build strong volunteer base across India. Let me know your thoughts on the same.

They help them in becoming digital literate and better use the knowledge that is there available through digital mediums. - In his talk he showed us a video how digital literacy can be helpful very inspiring link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE63BYWdqC4 - It was a long talk with a lot information on literacy education etc. - After that there was a feed back session for *Dr Victor Udoewa* teams research.

The cross platform type of the application will enable user to get alerts on the go irrespective of the type of phone/system a user uses. The application would be released under GPL License. Taken from the documentation found @ http://aniketmaithani.github.io/HASS/ He is open to suggestion and discussioin about the project improvement and other ideas related to it. So don't hesitate and find him on https://github.com/aniketmaithani also a member of the mailing list. Last up was general discussions about the next meetup. Anuvrat Parashar and all the members of Reviews42 team that are part of Ncr-python user group have also proposed Reviews42 as the venue for the next meetup.

Aniket, it would depend on what the remote server is doing, and what it can accept. If it is a webserver that is displaying the data, transferring over HTTP might be the easiest. Else, you can use something like ftplib. You should also consider compressing the data with zlib before sending.

According to this link - http://matplotlib.org/1.3.1/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.draw - your script hasn't displayed anything at all, and the draw function expects a figure to be already drawn.
