The objective of the workshop is to understand how various sensors and actuators are accessed and controlled from a Linux-based embedded system. We hope this will be a starting point for people who want to build connected and IoT-enabled embedded systems using Linux. Requirements: ---- 1. Laptop with GNU/Linux, Windows, OSX installed. Two free USB ports on the laptop. 2. Programming experience in Python 3. Putty or any similar ssh client installed. The complete agenda for the workshop is on meetup page [1]. The workshop is an excellent opportunity to start learning about the hardware side of the world from the experts. The ticket fee is 100 INR. You can track the expense here [2]. Feel free to contact us about the workshop. Share the news [3][4].

I came across this group via Python.org. I configured Pydev in Eclipse and have also installed cucumber plugin for Eclipse to write BDD programs. I have also installed "behave" via the PIP command. To start with, i imported an existing project into eclipse. But each time i right click on the feature file (dirst_behave.feature) and Run as "Cucumber feature", i get the error - "Launch configuration first_behave.feature references non-existing project python_behave_template-master." I tried remapping the Python interpreter, but no luck. Request the group members to guide me on this issue. I've spent almost a day looking for a resolution, but unable to get any solution.

The theme for the meetup is "Machine Learning Techniques." The talks can be in any domain. You can speak about Image classifiers, NLP, neural network design, use cases and success stories. Machine learning/deep learning is a heavy math subject. To understand how machine learning works, various sub-related fields exposure is a mandate. BangPypers caters to a broad audience, with different work and academic titles. Our audience has an abundant curiosity to learn. We know as a speaker; you spend a significant time to prepare and share your wisdom with the crowd. That's an incredible skill to possess and improve. We appreciate the efforts by all speakers. Because of your work, our audience learn, apply them at work, attend again, spread the news, and their friends attend the meetups. >From our last meetup feedback [1] and observation, the organizing team would like to suggest some guidelines for speakers. 1. Share the prerequisite for attending the talk. Suggest preferred reading materials and videos if any. 2. Use different aids to teach a concept. Show the math, Python code for the math and visual elements like Graphs, diagrams, charts in continuation. It's easier for the audience to grok the concept when math, code, and visuals go in hand together. 3. Spend 5 minutes in the end in summarizing the key concepts. 4. In previous meetups, the maximum talk duration was 45 minutes. For the series, the maximum talk slot duration is up to one hour and fifteen minutes. It's lengthy. The reason to extend the talking slot is to allow the speaker to build the foundation, explain the hard things, compare different models and engage with the audience. This doesn't mean, all the talks should take an hour and fifteen minutes. Proposing talk with ten, or thirty minutes is acceptable. In case you would like to give a talk, please reply with following details. 1. Title 2. Description 3. Prerequisites to attend the talk with links for audience to prepare 4. Slot Duration If you like to host the future meetup at your work place, please contact us. You can read about what we look from the host in "Venue" section from one of the previous blog post [2]. We would like to conduct Machine learning, deep learning workshops in future. If this interests you please contact us.

From praveengshirali at gmail.com Sun Jul 23 00:42:58 2017 From: praveengshirali at gmail.com (Praveen Shirali) Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2017 10:12:58 +0530 Subject: [BangPypers] Need help with Pydev installation in Eclipse In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Pradeep, I'm sorry I don't have an answer to your query. I'm also digressing a bit from the topic with some advice/rant (feel free to ignore), but I feel it is important for you to know. I don't know if you came across tutorials which advice you to use Pydev with Python as a best-practice/starting-point (wild guess, since you are just starting off), but I wouldn't be surprised if that info is still floating around old tutorials, videos or even class room sessions by trainers in the field. This stuff has been around for more than 10+ years. There probably was a time when Pydev, Komodo Edit etc were considered `advanced` IDEs to work with Python. Things have progressed A LOT since then. Since you are new to Python, I'd request that you explore using Python on CLI first: [1] Use virtualenv & virtualenvwrapper. These are your friends when it comes to isolating environments. Get to know these inside out, and how pip works with these envs. [2] Begin by invoking your scripts, tests etc from CLI. Get to know how python discovers packages, PYTHONPATH etc. [3] You could use SublimeText or VSCode as a basic IDE. Use the IDE only to write/edit code to begin with. Once you are comfortable doing these from CLI (yes, it is almost as easy as any IDE), you'll find it easy to map and debug IDE config issues when you try out a more wholesome IDE like Pydev for E, PyCharm, VSCode etc. You'll discover that you'll probably need an IDE only to do hard-core debugging and inspection with breakpoints etc. Thanks, Praveen On 16 July 2017 at 00:14, pradeep br wrote: > Hi Team, > > I'm a newbie in the world of Python.
