This repository contains little tutorials showcasing relevant aspects of python 3.

The repository is organized into 5 sections (folders) each folder contains little scripts to test and show how to accomplish different tasks.

• python_basics: Contains basic modules to dominate python.
• python_advanced: Contains examples from task-specific libraries such as cython and pyspark.
• python_environments: Contains exampes of how to isolate python environments.
• python_libraries: Contains examples of relevant python libraries
• python_tiny_projects: Contains little projects to showcase the previous folders

This folder contains subfolders dedicated to different python modules or topics.

• argparse: build command-line interfaces for your python programs.

  • sys.argv: Basic way to retrieve arguments used to call python scripts from bash.
  • argparse: How to pass keyword arguments to python scripts.

• async: Launch python tasks without beeing blocked by others. Typically very usefull for io bound tasks.

This folder contains subfolders dedicated to special (but general purpose) python libraries or advanced topics.

• cython: Allows you to compile "python code" (cython code) to C and use it in python applications.
• pyspark: Use pyspark to do parallel work in computer clusters.

This folder contains subfolders dedicated to anaconda and virtualenv.

• virtualenv: Default package manager for python.
• anaconda: Package that allows creation of environments.
