THIS MONTH'S TALKS ARE:
Loop better: a deeper look at iteration in Python
by Trey Hunner, host of Weekly Python Chat (http://www.weeklypython.chat/)
Iterables are a very big deal in Python and they became even more important in Python 3. There's quite a bit beyond the basics when it comes to loops and looping in Python. Let's learn some of Python's slightly more advanced looping techniques! We'll take a step back and learn about how looping actually works in Python. We'll then learn about a number of Python looping techniques that you've probably overlooked.
We'll learn about the difference between sequences, iterables, and iterators. We'll also reveal the iterator protocol that powers for loops in Python. After we learn the basics, we'll learn some techniques for working with infinite infinite iterables, generators, and generator expressions.
Trey will be presenting remotely and doing a live Q&A after the talk!
What Do We Do When Everything Is Automated
by Technology journalist/developer Bob Reselman
This talk takes a look at the impact of automation on human employment. Bob will describe the current state of automation on the human workforce, the five impacts that are and will affect human employment in commercial environments and the 3 challenges that will need to be met as commerce reaches near total automation.
Module of the month will be presented by Alex Chavez, Data Scientist for the City of Long Beach - Prophet (https://facebookincubator.github.io/prophet/): Forecasts in a Snap
