For the first time, there will be a Python for Data Analytics Workshop
in Dublin Ireland.
The One-Day intensive workshop mainly focuses on the following topics:
• Basics of Python and IPython
• First steps with the pandas data analytics library
• Plotting with pandas (eg plot types, customization)
• Advanced pandas topics (eg vectorization, performance)
• Hardware bound IO operations
The workshop is for those already working with Python and planning to
do more data analytics with it as well as for those who have
experience in other technology fields and want to make use of Python's
strong data analytics capabilities.
The workshop is mainly based on IPython notebooks with selected
smaller exercises and somewhat more complex case studies.
Throughout the workshop we use our Python Quant Platform, a Web- and
browser-based data analytics and collaboration platform. You only need
to bring your notebook connect to the Wifi and get immediately started.

*Advanced Python Workshop* by /Mike Müller / Python Academy/
* When: Thu/Fri, 9th/10th October
* Where: Camden Court Hotel, Dublin
* Price: 715.00 (Tickets)
* Level: Intermediate
Python offers several advanced concepts. It is possible to write
useful Python programs without them. But if you want to really
understand how Python works and how to write really pythonic programs,
you should know about these topics:
* Comprehensions
* Iterators and generators
* Context manager
* Decorators
* Descriptors
* Metaclasses
* Conventions and good style a.k.a. pythonic programming
The workshop covers them in detail using code examples that will be
immediately useful for your daily work. Carefully crafted exercises
help you to experience the learnt material. You will get detailed
solutions for all exercises after the training.
The workshop content and teaching concept is based on numerous
advanced Python classes taught by Mike Müller including in-house
courses and the successful courses at EuroPython 2012 and 2013,
PyConPL 2012, PyCon DE 2013, PyCon IE 2013, and PyCon in Montrèal 2014.
Mike taught about 180 Python classes with well over 400 training days.
