Weekly Python Chat

Weekly live video chats about Python, teaching, open source, and more

One live chat every week

Weekly Python Chat is a live chat for Python developers. Sometimes we talk about Python and sometimes we just talk about life.

These live events vary in format, including everything from audience-driven interviews to online workshops. Live events vary in length from 20 minutes to 90 minutes.

Isn't this like a screencast/podcast/Slack room?

Not exactly. The hosts are on video and other participants are in text chat. These events are recorded, but the best way to participate is to show up live. There's also the option to jump on video with the hosts if you have a question that requires a screenshare.

Who are you?

My name is Trey Hunner. I teach Python. I've used Python for the past 6 years. I did full-stack web consulting for 5 years and now I do remote training online as well as on-site corporate training.

I tweet one #pythonoddity every week, I blog semi-regularly, I contribute to open source sometimes, and I participate in my local Python meetups. I also host Weekly Python Chat.

Tuple Unpacking

📅

Tuple unpacking is one of those Python features that is under-used frequently. Many uses for tuple unpacking are obvious and well-encouraged but some uses are frequently overlooked.

In this chat we'll talk about both tuples and tuple unpacking. We'll discuss the difference between the two and then we'll discuss how and where to use tuple unpacking.

This will be a Q&A-heavy chat so come prepared to ask questions!

All experience levels are welcome in this chat. Don't be afraid of asking bad/silly/easy/hard questions. This chat is for you and your questions belong here.
