Prepare your computer before the class

  • Install the latest Python 3 package from the official python download page
  • Have your editor of choice or IDE ready to go
  • OR just bring an SSH client (Mac, Linux already has it, use PuTTY on Windows)
    • With SSH we will provide you a shell with python and some editors
  • OR NEW just bring a Web Browser (Firefox and Chrome should work almost everywhere)

Prepare your brain before the class

Learn all about programming with the easy-to-learn and use language: Python!

This is the first class in a series of three python programming classes appropriate for any hackers interested in computer programming and software development.

This class is graciously hosted by NSL Keyholder Merlin!

What will we cover?

Practical Python language basics will be covered from the ground up.

At the end of the class we’ll work on some adventure games.

Topics we’ll cover

  • Why Python is BALLER
  • How to Python (ensuring everyone has some kind of working Python environment before we start)
  • Literals, built-in types, and variables
  • Functions, modules, and objects (briefly and shallowly)
  • Operators, loops, and conditionals
  • Functions, modules, and objects (a bit deeper, as time permits)

Projects we’ll do

  • Work on adventure games

Learn all about programming with the easy-to-learn and use language: Python!

This is the second class in a series of three python programming classes appropriate for any hackers interested in computer programming and software development.

This class is graciously hosted by NSL Keyholder Merlin!

What will we cover?

Python language basics will be reviewed as a refresher for anyone coming from our Python 101 class, and to ensure we’re all on the same page before diving into intermediate topics.

If you already know basic programming and specifically basic python programming, but want to learn how to actually engineer software in python, this class will be of special interest to you.

If you just want to see and experience more of “Why Python is Baller”, we’ll have some things for you.

See below for instructions on what you need before the class (Python and a text editor, basically) as well as some introductory material for those who want to get a head start.

Topics we’ll review

  • Why Python is BALLER
  • Types, variables, operators, conditionals, loops, functions

Topics we’ll cover in depth

  • Standard Python Functions
    • Almost all of them!
  • Standard Python Libraries
    • A few of them, anyway!
    • Also how to learn more about them
  • Generators and comprehensions
  • Modules and packages
  • Command line arguments and interfaces
  • Tour of well known powerful libraries

How much does the class cost?

This class costs $60 for anyone who isn’t a member of Null Space Labs.

You can pay at the door in cash or other electronic methods on site.

Projects we’ll do

  • Work on Multi User Dungeons
