[python-uk] Off-topic: Happy Birthday, Don Knuth (and Python coroutines)

[Jonathan Fine]

Hi

Don Knuth, author of The Art Of Computer Programming and creator of the TeX
typesetting system is 83 today. Happy Birthday Don. Thank you for TeX and
everything else.

You're warmly invited to join me online to celebrate Don's life and work.
The virtual party is on Thursday 14 January, 6:30 to 7:30pm UK time.

You'll find the zoom details (and a goto tribute) at:
https://jfine2358.github.io/post/2021/01/10/happy-birthday-don-knuth/

This link also contains a discussion of how merging two binary trees
provides a good example of how coroutines can be useful, as in Python's
async and wait.

with best wishes

Jonathan
