What:   Python Programming I: Introduction to Python
When:   August 29-31, 2005
Where:  San Francisco, CA, USA

Already know Java, Perl, C/C++, JavaScript, PHP, or TCL/Tk, but want to
learn Python because you've been hearing about how Google, Yahoo!,
Industrial Light & Magic, Red Hat, Zope, NASA, and IronPort are using
this object-oriented, open source applications and systems development
language?

Python is rapidly gaining momentum worldwide and seeing more new users
each year. While similar to those other languages, Python
differentiates itself with a robust yet simple-as-VB syntax which
allows for shorter development time and improved group collaboration.

Need to get up-to-speed with Python as quickly as possible?
Come join us in beautiful Northern California the week before Labor
Day.  We are proud to announce another rigorous Python training event

geared towards those who have some proficiency in another high-level

    * Data Types, Operators, and Methods
    * Errors and Exception Handling

    * Classes, Methods, and Class Instances
    * Callable and Executable Objects
