Python Sheffield

Python Sheffield is back and we are going to have another code dojo-like session to practice our python programming skills. The topic for the dojo will be picked at the beginning of the event by the group so you can only blame yourselves if it turns out not to be fun!

For more general information on coding dojos, see here: http://ntoll.org/article/how-to-run-an-awesome-code-dojo

Some ideas for the eventing include:

* There are some lists of potentially interesting problems from here: http://codingdojo.org/kata/

* We could look at https://www.codewars.com/

* Come up with our own ideas

The usual schedule for PySheff dojos are meant to be something like this:

17:45 - 18:15: Informally, a number of us are likely to be at StreetFoodChef for burritos. While these are not provided as part of attending, anyone is welcome to join us.

18:30 - 18:45: Socialising time at UnionSt.

18:45 - 19:00: Suggestions for topics generated and topic chosen.

19:00 - 19:45: Split into groups and work on the topic.

19:45 - 19:55: Quick break to discuss progress and perhaps quick demonstrations.

19:55 - 20:20: Second programming session.

20:20 - 20:30: Show and tell and discussion.

20:30 - late: Migrate to a local pub (tonight it seems it will be the Tap and Tankard on Cambridge Street, near John Lewis) for post event drinks. Note that this part of the evening is probably not suitable for any children to join in with, depending on the pubs.

Attendance is free and the event is intended to be suitable for all levels of python experience. If you'd like to attend this meeting, it is advisable to bring a laptop. Any under 18s who wish to attend must be accompanied by an adult, preferably also with an interest in Python.
