The Central Ohio Python User's Group

About Us

We are a friendly and enthusiastic group of Central Ohio Pythonistas. We meet most Thursday evenings for informal dojos, occasionally for lunch on various days of the week, and have a monthly meeting usually on the last Monday of the month. To have lunch at your favorite place, announce the time and place on the mailing list.

After our monthly meetings we like to adjourn to some nearby eatery to enjoy good food, good drinks, and good conversation.

We have code on our github repository, especially of challenges where people solved problems using Python in very different ways.

Weekly Dojos

We meet most Thursday evenings:

Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone interested in Python from complete beginners, to experts, and everyone in between are welcome to the Dojos. Bring your Python questions and problems. Digressions from Python are common.

This month's presentation:

Google Colab by John Lairson

John will be showing "Google Colab", a universally compatible in-browser cloud powered version of Jupyter Notebook. John will be going over the f-strings material from last year, having cleaned it up, and will demonstrate how this tool seamlessly integrates with github and google drive. We can also demonstrate its integration with Google's Gemini LLM.

We meet on the last Monday of most months. Presentations are given by members and friends of this group. If you would like to do a presentation (small or large) on a Python topic, please contact John Cassidy.
