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.

Properties in Python

📅

Getter/setter methods are a big deal in Java. Getters are used for normalizing & validating data and setters are used for computing data on the fly.

In Python, we don't use getter and setter methods: we use properties.

Properties are weird and they can be a little scary at first. In this live chat I'm going to show you what properties are and how they work and then I'll answer your questions about properties in Python.
