In today's meeting Matthew covered several new features of Python 3, and ways of moving from Python 2.

His presentation is available via this link (.pdf): "Python - the wonderous language hack"

Other ideas that were discussed include:

  • Raspberry Pi

    • Building a weather station, measuring atmospheric pollution monitoring
  • Python-Make-Over:

    • Someone brings old code (can be Matlab, Python 2, Fortran, etc.)
    • The group has 30-60 minutes to convert the code to Python 3
