May Meet Program Python Meetup:
Report # 1. Artyom Pevukhin Undev.ru (Moscow) “Go Language for Python Programmers”
About:The report will explain how the Python programming language Go can be of interest to the developer. The basic idioms of Go will be described and answers to the following questions will be given: How applicable to Go is “Zen of Python”? What is the scope of this language? What can you win by using Go instead of Python?

Report No. 2. Maxim Baryshnikov, Solutions Architect at Wargaming (Minsk) “Wargaming: the rear - to the front!”
About what: I believe that I won’t reveal the secret of the Open Sign if I say the following: for the game to become successful (and from successful to become legendary), the game itself is not enough, no matter how good it is. Among other things, a really massive game needs a very developed web part. It will be discussed.

Report No. 3.Alexey Cherkes Senior Developer at Sakrament-IT (Minsk) "SWIG - creating multilanguage interfaces for C / C ++ libraries."
About: Briefly talk about what is binding and Python with API. A quick tour of binders for Python. Next, we will talk about SWIG: what is it, why is it needed, features, the scheme of utilities, the order of launch and assembly, the principles of work, how the object models of C ++ are compared with the target language. Examples in Python and C #. Application experience, pros / cons.

As usual, a “free microphone” will work, which means that anyone can make a blitz presentation that does not require a pre-prepared presentation. The main thing is the desire to share something interesting and useful.
