[Mar. 13th, 2008|01:51 pm] |
so, if you have seen it yet, I now have a feed posted up on the Auido page for subscribing to the Audio feed of Penguicast...
It only has the 2.0 audio in it at this time, but I will be adding the 5.0 sessions soon as well as some previews for the upcoming 6.0 conference. At some point Matt and I will also get out the older ones that were not previously published.

| Penguicast Episode Ten -- "Introduction To Python" |
[Aug. 6th, 2007|02:24 pm] |
Welcome to Penguicast, August 2007, episode 10 of the podcast of Penguicon, an open source software and science fiction convention. Presenting "Intoduction To Python" by Catherine Devlin. This presentation took place 7:30 to 8:30 PM on Friday, April 20 of Penguicon 2007.
I'm your host, Matt Arnold. This episode is especially interesting to me right now, having just started learning Python and using it to create Herdcat, a piece of cat-herding software that uses a spaced-repetition scheduling algorithm to help me remember all the friends I need to get back in touch with, and check how long it's been since they've talked to me about whatever projects we're working on.
Due to a technical difficulty, the presentation got a late start and is short enough to fit in one episode, but it's chock full of great stuff. Never fear that you won't be able to see what's on the presenter's screen. Some of the audience were unable to see it either, so Catherine is very descriptive. So the silver lining is, it's perfect for podcasting! Here's the descriptive blurb from the program book about the recording in today's episode:
Python, the easy, elegant, and powerful dynamic programming language, is spreading everywhere. Stop feeling lame for not knowing it! Catherine Devlin will give you an introduction to Python while whipping up a graphical simulator of solar system dynamics before your very eyes. Suitable as your first programming language or your twentieth. Come, learn Python, and hurl planets into the sun!
