Wednesday 7 December, 1800 for 1830 NZDT/0530 UTC
We will continue the "Crafting Software" series, gradually developing
Monty's Python Supermarket. The evening's aim is to move the
product-prices from their hard-coded dict[ionary] into a flat-file
(introducing Python I/O), and then to do same with the Accountant's
favorite tool - a Workbook or Spreadsheet (Python's library to interact
with LibreOffice-Calc and MS-Excel). You can treat it as a
code-along-at-home exercise or just watch the fun. The Web-conference
URL and a QuickStart Guide (for those who didn't attend last time) will
be provided upon RSVP. All welcome!

The Smart Iterators Challenge has finished (after five Challenge-weeks). Congratulations to all who participated (and if you didn't have time to complete, you're welcome to continue at your own pace). Particular pride
for those who hung-in-there right to the end, making astute discoveries
and learning ideas which have already been adopted into
professional-practice. Well done! A "Retrospective, Review, and
Reflection Wrap-up" document is available to participants/upon request.
Advice and assistance will continue to be available - please email off-list.
