Let's Meetup and do a quiz

This is the January monthly meeting. Note that it is on the second Tuesday of the month. Normally some of us go on to the pub afterwards.

Please note the January meeting is on the second Tuesday of the month, as having a meeting on New Year's Day seems a poor idea.

This meeting will be a Python quiz. No laptops needed.

At PyCon UK 2018, Sue Sentance's keynote on "Programming in school: what's in a teacher's toolkit?" referenced various techniques, including getting small groups to talk about what a piece of code might do, and why. This quiz will aim to get people thinking about how different parts of Python work (with some silly questions as well).

**How CamPUG uses meetup.com**

We mainly use meetup as a way of publicising meetings, at which it is very good. We also use the RSVP mechanism to get some idea of how many people will turn up to a meeting, but this is very inaccurate - at best, we normally get between half and two-thirds of the "yes" numbers attending.

We do not require people to pay for meetings, or acquire tickets, and we do not "take a register" of who actually turns up. We don't even insist that people have to use meetup to indicate they're coming. It is important to me that this be a free and open meeting.

This does mean that we could have a problem when a meeting is very popular and reaches the practical room size - i.e., how many will safely fit in our meeting room. Given our new venue, we don't think that is likely to happen in the near future, but we have put a limit on the number of "yes" RSVP replies: larger than the actual room size, but hopefully not too large.
