[edit] Proposed Sessions

[edit] Intro to python Workshop (120 mins)

Since this is a long session, we may need to find a spot where we can have this session without disturbing the main tracks. Also this is a workshop meaning we will be working through the code. Get a laptop with the latest version of Python along so you can type out the program in parallel.

Siddharta Govindaraj, [if you are interested in co-running this session, add your name here]

In this session we will learn python by gradually refining a program through three stages. The goal of the program will be to randomly pick words and generate sentences.

Stage 0 (15 min)

A quick introduction to python basics

  • Using the interpreter
  • Variables and types
  • Intro to basic data types - int, float, string, list, dict, tuple
  • Indenting in python

Stage 1 (40 min)

The first stage program will randomly select words from a sample of text and output it.

  • Writing a basic program in python
  • File I/O
  • Functions and parameters
  • Loops, conditions
  • List comprehension

Stage 2 (20 min)

The second stage program will randomly select words based on the probability of occurance.

  • Creating data structures with lists and dicts
  • Iterating through dicts

Stage 3 (20 min)

A smarter program that uses a Markov chain to generate sentences.

  • More complex structures: dict of lists and dict of dicts

stage 3 (30 mins)

  • Introducing The Brainwave Platform
  • Pending Tasks and Community Participation
