I wish I learnt that earlier!

Python is an easy language to learn. Many Python programmers just picked it up thinking “It can’t be too different from X, just with indents!”. By learning a language this way you don’t discover the features unique to that language.


In this talk we’ll take a tour of Python features that are easily missed. This includes list comprehension, generator functions and the PEP documents. Where appropriate time comparisons between different methods will be given.
