- HP training - July 1999.
- An intensive course for a group of more experienced Python
developers at the Hewlett-Packard
e-speak group, designed to give their coding skills and style a
boost. Thanks to HP for allowing me to place this on the web.
- The State of Python - 23 August 1999.
- Opening address of the Python track at the O'Reilly Open Source
Software Conference in Monterey.
- IDLE - 24 August 1999.
- IDLE - An Integrated DeveLopment Environment in and for Python -
presented at the O'Reilly Open Source Software Conference in Monterey.
- CP4E - 9 October 1999.
- A presentation on Computer Programming for
Everybody (CP4E) that I gave at the student conference of the ACM student chapter at the University
of Illinois.
- Python Workshop - 10 October 1999.
- A Python tutorial that I gave at the student conference of the ACM student chapter at the University
of Illinois.
- Using Python for CGI Programming
- 12 November 1999.
- A brief generic Python tutorial followed by a tutorial on CGI
programming using Python and a case study. These are the slides that
I used at Software Development '99
East in Washington, DC. I never got to present the case study
part, and the tail of both prior tutorials had to be cut off due to
time constraints (ain't I bad :-). So here is all the material I had
presented. Note that these are entirely different slides than
the ones on the SD'99 website -- that was a longer tutorial plus some
advanced Python material without any of the CGI material.
