Dear All, Taking this opportunity to wish all of you a happy new year. :)
Please find below the MoM of the Chennai Py meetup held on Dec 24: The Minutes of the meeting of the ChennaiPy Dec 24 meetup: The 20 minute talks were: ----------------------------- *Data Structures in Python by Ashok:* This talk started by setting the context for which we needed to have an understanding of algorithms and data structures. The search time taken by the google engine was analysed and then the reasons were looked into. Post that some of the commonly used data structues in Python were mentioned and the talk was wrppped up with a demo comparing the effectiveness of 2 searching algos. *Obscure Python Implementations by Subil:* In this talk Subil gave us some details regarding features and the details of Cython, Jython, PyPy, Nuitka, Stackles Python and Brython. Lightning Talks ------------------ *3d rendering of data for information dissemination, * *particuarly during times like Wardah by Ashwin* This talk was about how to render data available on websites like IMD in a 3d format to the common man. This aim of this work by Ashwin, is to create awareness to the common man using forums like Twitter, about imminent catastrophies like cyclone so that the common man is well-informed and can take suitable action to protect himself. *An upcoming technology - Compressive Sensing by Ashok* Instead of acquiring large amounts of data and throwing a good portion of the same as useless information, this talk explored the option of directly acquiring useful information. The Rice University in US is specialising on the same amd there is a startup company called "Inview" which is also investing on this technology. *Invitation by Free Software Foundation Tamil Nadu (https://fsftn.org/ <https://fsftn.org/>) to be held from January 26-29, 2017 at B.S. Abdur Rahman University, Chennai.* 4CCon is the second national conference of Free Software Movement of India ( http://fsmi.in/), the umbrella organisation of territorial and sectoral organisations dedicated to the cause of software freedom across the country. FSFTN, which is a part of FSMI, is the host for 4CCon.
