Come out to McAdams 114, Wednesday Oct. 7 @ 8:00 PM for our next Meeting. The meeting topic will be an introduction to Python with Object Oriented Programming given by Chris Guirl.
Python is a programming language that lets you work more quickly and integrate your systems more effectively. You can learn to use Python and see almost immediate gains in productivity and lower maintenance costs.
Python combines the power of a language like C++ with the ease of use found in a language like BASIC. CLUG presents a primer on the popular language which will include a focus on OO principles. Come see why companies like Google make this one of their primary coding platforms.
Representatives from Sun Microsystems and clemson's OSUM club will be on the library bridge Friday Sept 18 from 10:30-3:00 handing out free swag and telling people about alternatives to closed source software.
Our first meeting of the semester will be held on Wednesday, Sept 16 at 8pm in McAdams 114 . Aaron Rosen will be giving an introduction to linux and showing off some cool tips and tricks.
Clemson Linux User Group will be having their first installfest of the
semester on Sat. Aug 29th from 11-3pm in Martin 101. Bring your computer,
power cables, and any hardware that you would like to get working under
linux.
(Also please run the disk defragmenter and the scan disk before you come
because sometimes those have to be run before repartitioning your hard
drive).
