I'm putting together a 2-3 hour briefing + demonstration for faculty to try to get them interested in Python for our introductory programming course, which uses a baffling subset of C++ at the moment. I thought I'd do it in a PC lab with Win2000 and use Python 2.0 + IDLE. I teach Python under Linux, but I think the windoze environment will be more convincing for them, and engaging for beginning programming students. I plan to discuss programming environments, provide an overview of the language, and have them type in some small programs. Anyone done this recently? Have any thoughts to contribute?
