Python Workshop Notes

Chad — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 00:02:52 +0000

A few months ago, I taught a Python scripting workshop at my old school, Expression College, aimed at introducing students to the Python scripting language and using it in Maya. It was a one day workshop so everything was condensed and to the point. There’s no history of Python section or best practices section. The goal of the workshop was to get students familiar with Python so they could learn how to read and write basic scripts and also how to further their studies. I wrote a whole slew of notes to hand out to the students and ever since then, they’ve just been sitting on my computer…that is until now! I’ve ported over my notes onto my website and they are now free to view. You can find them here or in the Tutorials sections.
