Writing code to pass tests

This is the November monthly meeting. Normally some of us go on to the pub afterwards.

NOTE that this meeting is the SECOND Tuesday of the month, as the first Tuesday is Fireworks Night (https://www.cambridgelive.org.uk/city-events/bonfire-night).

This month Barry Byford will lead us in doing some hands-on exercises, writing short Python programs to pass already written unit tests. Stub code for the functions that are being tested will be available. The first exercise has a tutorial that will show how to take tests that run, from failing to passing.

Pairing up with someone is encouraged, but not mandatory. Each pair will need a computer with Python 3 installed.

This should be a beginner friendly session.

(If you do pair up, Tibs recommends the Mu editor, https://codewith.mu/en/download, as a good simple Python editor.)

Late breaking news: Bubble (www.bubblegroup.com) should be providing pizza.
