[Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib tutorial at PyCon US
Hi, I will be giving a matplotlib and a optimization tutorial at PyCon in March. So please point people to it who would like to have a compact introduction to matplotlib. The optimization tutorial gives an overview over this topic. BTW, the early bird deadline is today. Mike Plotting with matplotlib Instructor: Mike Müller Type:Tutorial Audience level:Novice Category:Useful libraries March 8th 9 a.m. – 12:20 p.m. https://us.pycon.org/2012/schedule/presentation/238/ When it comes to plotting with Python many people think about matplotlib. It is widely used and provides a simple interface for creating a wide variety of plots from very simple diagrams to sophisticated animations. This tutorial is a hands-on introduction that teaches the basics of matplotlib. Students will learn how to create publication-ready plots with just a few lines of Python. Faster Python Programs through Optimization --- Instructor: Mike Müller Type:Tutorial Audience level:Experienced Category:Best Practices/Patterns March 7th 9 a.m. – 12:20 p.m. https://us.pycon.org/2012/schedule/presentation/245/ This tutorial provides an overview of techniques to improve the performance of Python programs. The focus is on concepts such as profiling, difference of data structures and algorithms as well as a selection of tools and libraries that help to speed up Python. -- Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!

[Matplotlib-users] [ANN] Courses in Colorado: "Introduction to Python and Python for Scientists and Engineers" - one day left for early bird rate
Python Course in Golden, CO, USA **There is only one day left to take advantage of the early bird rate.** Introduction to Python and Python for Scientists and Engineers -- June 3 - 4, 2011 Introduction to Python June 5, 2011 Python for Scientists and Engineers Both courses can be booked individually or together. Venue: Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO (20 minutes west of Denver) Trainer: Mike Müller Target Audience --- The introductory course is designed for people with basic programming background. Since it is a general introduction to Python it is suitable for everybody interested in Python. The scientist's course assumes a working knowledge of Python. You will be fine if you take the two-day introduction before hand. The topics are of general interest for scientists and engineers. Even though some examples come from the groundwater modeling domain, they are easy to understand for people without prior knowledge in this field. About the Trainer ----- Mike Müller, has been teaching Python since 2004. He is the founder of Python Academy and regularly gives open and in-house Python courses as well as tutorials at PyCon US, OSCON, EuroSciPy and PyCon Asia-Pacific.
