ChiPy Monthy Meeting: Thurs Sept 13th 7pm Matplotlib Topics and more
by Brian Ray Sept. 11, 2012

Sept. 11, 2012

Chicago Python User Groups invites you to a special meeting in memory of one of our long time members, John Hunter, author of Matplotlib (ref http://numfocus.org/johnhunter./). A collection will be made and matched to some percentage (TBD) by ChiPy then donated to the Memorial Fund. Checks can be made out to "Chicago Python User Group" or cash can be handed to me. I will give you a hand written receipt if you requested one. John would want the best meeting ever... this is exactly that! Everyone is welcome to this meeting, feel free to bring a guest. It will be a small group so there should be an opportunity to interface and have some small discussions. When: This Thursday September 13th at 7PM (get there early if you want to be sure to get some pizza before it runs out) Where: ITA 15th Floor 200 S. Wacker Drive Chicago, IL 60606 312.435.2805 http://goo.gl/maps/v95sI RSVP Here: http://chipy.org Agenda: Free Food and Drink (starting at 6:45) Matplotlib Examples Uses (:45 Forty-Five Minutes) By: Greg Kettler Two examples of using matplotlib: first, in Greg's PhD research in marine microbiology; second, in plotting baseball PITCHf/x data. Event Driven Concurrency (:30 Thirty Minutes) By: Ben Toews Ben recently discovered event driven concurrency. He will be talking about some of the basics as well as trying to compare it with other concurrency options. The focus will be on its application in a few recent projects as well as a comparison of Python's gevent and node.js. Some of the demos will also be using matplotlib in honor of John Hunter's passing.
