Learnathon: Python

​"Simple is better than complex. Complex is better than complicated." - The Zen of Python

​In this week's Learnathon, we'll be grinding on one of the most important languages in the programming stack. Python is the most-used tool by developers globally, and is ubiquitous across modern development, from statistics and data science, machine learning, web development, scripting, and quantitative finance.

Where in week 1, we focused on hands-free development to maximise flow and creative output, this week is about having the discipline to put in the reps and build a skill. Much like conquering 100 burpees at burn with Sam, this session will be about challenging yourself to complete as many exercises as possible on Exercism (exercism.org).

The exercises start from absolute basics (think "Hello, World"), and increase in difficulty as you progress, so this will be great for coders at any level.

Dinner will be brought to coworking, and Brian will be on-site to provide context, help debug, and run the session.

And for those who like prizes: never fear! We will have a nucleus kit for whoever completes the most exercises. 🧬
