PUG – Python User’s Group

Python User’ Group (or PUG for short) is an open and informal collaborative space for experimentation and exploration with the Python programming language. It is an opportunity for those interested in Python to work together virtually and find support. Whether you are looking for advice or assistance with new or current projects, looking to discuss and learn new skills using Python tools, or to join us to play around with our collection of sample datasets, PUG is your place!

PUG is open to people of all skill levels, disciplines, and backgrounds. Complete beginners to Python will find a place here. Come, and let’s learn together.

Join PUG Slack here: https://join.slack.com/t/pug-world/shared_invite/zt-iube7uch-nVkvtIyIbpaqtQSZcMB2Ig

PUG is cosponsored by the MA in Digital Humanities / MS in Data Analytics and Visualization programs and the Mina Rees Library.

    Dear Pythonistas,

    We are looking forward to see you tomorrow for our happy-holidays-last-meeting-of-the-year. You’ve already done plenty this week, so tomorrow afternoon will be time to forget about your research and classes for bit and work together in some relaxing (we will make sure to have a couple beers and snacks there) python exercises .

    See you tomorrow!

    Hey Rafael et al,

    I’ve been doing web scraping with the scrapy python library and doing some
    scripting with pandas for cleaning datasets. I’d be really curious to
    discuss with other people best practices and concepts for how they are
    storing their scripts or setting up their python work environment.
    Basically I’ve found myself with a bunch of little scripts living in
    different directories with different datasets and I’m sure there is a
    better way to handle this. Is this something that there could be room to
    discuss tomorrow? Are there other people who want to talk about this/have
    ideas?

    Annalisa

    Of course, Annalisa, you are more than welcome to come. That is what PUG is for.

    See you soon.
