My inaugural post on Mastodon is to promote the work found at https://programminghistorian.org. I wrote a piece for them some years ago, and their energetic staff went to the trouble of updating the examples therein from Python2 to Python3.

(This only recently came to my attention, and in reviewing the changes, I learned something: instead of importing numPy just to do `numpy.zeros((8,8))`, a list comprehension can do it: `[[0]*8 for x in range(8)]` )

This trivial revelation led me to look into some of the other tutorials at PH that have been published over the last few years. There's a lot of very useful stuff there!
