Hello,

I have been asked (OK, I volunteered) to teach a one day class on Python to
a group of software engineers (typ. experience would be C, C++ and/or Java
programming) at my company. I am fairly experienced with Python and could
probably come up with some reasonable content, but I was wondering if
anyone had any nuggets that I could dig up that would get me started? I was
thinking that somebody has probably done this before and may have a
slideset, class notes, or some such thing available for sharing. I have
just about every Python book available, but I don't really think I could
get through an entire book in one day, even in condessed form. My goal is
to get people enough familiarity and confidence to get started using Python
on their next project without hesitation. (World domination is a secondary
goal.)

Any thoughts and/or suggestions?

Thanks,

Don
