Come join PYPTUG at out next monthly meeting (September 19th 2017) to learn more about the Python programming language, modules and tools. Python is the ideal language to learn if you've never programmed before, and at the other end, it is also a tool that no expert would do without. Monthly meetings are in addition to our project nights.
What
Meeting will start at 6:00pm.

Abstract:
There are many visualization packages available out there, each best suited to specific scenarios. In the past several years, I've covered Matplotlib, Seaborn, Vincent, ggplot, 3d visualizations through matplotlib, D3.js and mpld3 and Bokeh. In this presentation we will cover plotly (for javascript, R and Python) and related packages and when it makes sense to use it.
