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.

Working with APIs in Python workshop on 2/21, 2-4pm!

  • Posted by Rebecca Krisel (she/her) on February 19, 2023 at 11:53 am

    Hi everyone!

    Come join us on Tuesday 2/21 from 2-4pm for the Working with APIs in Python workshop!

    In this online synchronous workshop, we will learn how to make data requests from an Application Programming Interface (API) in Python. An API is a server that you can use to retrieve and send data to using code. For example, the weather app on your phone connects to the weather bureau’s API system, which contains daily weather data, and shows you daily weather updates. In this workshop, we will specifically connect to the Metropolitan Museum of Art API to collect data about artworks and the free version of News API for collecting news data.

    Basic knowledge of Python is required for this workshop.

    See you there!
