We may not know much about the future of computer programming, but one thing we do know is that it is parallel and the biggest challenge facing software programmers and hardware designers is how to exploit all those multiple cores out there. So Unpingco’s new Python series is both fascinating and prescient. Oh and useful [...] June 18th, 2009 | Category: New ShowMeDo Videos, News, Open Source Software, Python ShowMeDos | Comments are closed |
Rede’s wondeful series shows how to repair old photographs with the GIMP graphic-editor. Check it out even if you haven’t got any old photographs to repair – you’ll learn a whole lot of GIMP anyway. And the photos are lovely too `[1399] Enhance A Framed Photo With GIMP Part 1‘, a video-tutorial by Rede, [...] Yiroel’s huge C++ beginners set continues to grow. This is a fantastic resource for starting programmers in what is a notoriously tricky language. Compared to a scripting language like Python, C++ makes much greater demands on the programmer, with a much more complex syntax and work-flow. So if you could do with a bit of [...] Do you want to learn OpenOffice Writer? OOo Writer is the open-source world’s answer to Microsoft Word – it is pretty much feature compatible in every respect, it works the same way and you can edit and share .doc files just as if you were using Word. You can even open older .doc files that [...] Wearing my research-scientist’s hat I can honestly assert that Python’s strength in scientific programming is one of its glories, and maybe less appreciated than it should be. That makes series like unpingo’s May 5th, 2009 | Category: New ShowMeDo Videos, News, Open Source Software, Python ShowMeDos | Comments are closed |
There are precious few open-source (OS) GUI builders of any repute but the lack is sorely felt in the WxPython world. WxGlade is a fine tool if you like, as I do, it’s minimalist approach, but it is best for fairly small projects. When programming in the C++ WxWidgets I was impressed by the DialogBlocks [...] March 20th, 2009 | Category: New ShowMeDo Videos, Open Source Software, Python ShowMeDos | Comments are closed |
In a trickle sure to become a flood, we are starting to receive some videos demonstrating Python 3 and its differences from the 2.3–2.6 family. Exciting time for all Pythonistas, but it will take a while before Py3k is the first Python of choice. But watch these and the others to come if you want [...] March 16th, 2009 | Category: New ShowMeDo Videos, Open Source Software, Python ShowMeDos | Comments are closed |
Erik Thompson continues his huge series ‘Developing Emol’ which follows his creation of a 3D molecule viewer using Python and WxPython, the Python GUI-building library. Erik has really created something special here, and it’s my own personal favourite Showmedo series. He covers quite comprehansively the creation of a useful and very cool piece of software.

Things are starting to settle with the new site and new-server teething problems, so some new video announcements are long overdue.

Given the UK government’s historic love of all software solutions proprietary, the news that Open Source solutions are now to be actively sought for and encouraged is significant indeed. Possible reasons for this volt-face are the collapse of more than a few high profile proprietary IT projects and a general need for belt-tightening as the [...] |

A Sting in the Tale
I just caught a very cool example of what some people are doing with javascript these days. A little molecule-builder, it’s impressive and fun at the same time:
check out Molecools
Now that was fun, and note the example molecule, Ethanol. As an aside, the simulator is pretty crude so there’s no valency-counting or any of the [...]
