Python is an interpreted, cross-platform, object-oriented programming
language that is popular for a wide range of applications, one of
which is Internet programming. This tutorial introduces current
Python programmers to three distinct areas of Internet programming,
each in self-contained modules with a set of lab exercises
following each lecture topic. Topics for this 1-day course:
Attendees will get a concise and comprehensive introduction to each
of these Internet and networking related topics. Students completing
this course should have a good introduction in three distinct areas of
Internet programming using Python and should being able to create
simple applications in each of covered subjects. We have had great
success and feedback giving an abridged version of this course as a
tutorial at the following conferences:
PREREQUISITE:
Developers familiar with Python who are interested in exploring
client/server network programming with sockets, Internet client
development (FTP, NNTP, POP3, SMTP), and web/CGI programming.
REQUIRED SOFTWARE: A Python interpreter is required for this course.
Any Python interpreter will do, from the standard C version to one of
the various implementations described above. For the Internet protocol
exercises, attendees must use their own news and mail servers. Contact
your system administrators or your ISP to get the required connection
information.
REQUIRED HARDWARE: A laptop/notebook or otherwise portable computer
is required for the course exercises. Attendees may use any platform
where Python is available. Bring your power cord! A network or
wireless card is optional but useful in case you wish to bring more
than one computer and wish to truly test your networking code.
