I am Puspita Ghosh, a student of MCA from BCREC. This is my first experience I'm learning online. Its altogether a different experienc. So far enjoying it and looking forward to the rest.
I started using Linux in 2009 though it was only after release of Gnome 3, that Linux became my primary OS and this is the first time I am learning python, so i am really excited about it. :) These sessions have particularly been very effective in giving me an understanding of the FOSS culture. I genuinely respect Kushal for the way he has been carring out the entire program. My best wishes to those attending this program.
My name is Shantanu Sarkar. I am a second year student pursuing B.Tech in Computer Sceince Engineering from Dr. B. C. Roy Engineering College, Durgapur.
I am familiar with the following languages:
I came to know about this training from my college seniors and decided to attend this training this year. I have been attending this training for around 3 weeks now, and it is great. Till now I have learnt :
Still a major part of the training is left. The training is mentored by Kushal Das. This Training is going to be very useful for me and I am thankful to Kushal for that. Training is going on and there is a long summer to go.
My name is Sheesh Mohsin, a student of B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering at Dr.B.C.Roy Engineering College, Durgapur. I came to know about the Summer Training 2013 from the seniors of my college.I have got to know several things which are as follows:-
This training is still going on, and i found that it is much effective for me. Learning a lot from this training. This training is going on under Kushal Das
Hi, I am Sonam Banerjee,a second year b.Tech student of Computer Science Engineering,studying in Dr. B. C. Roy Engg College, Durgapur. Presently, I am undergoing summer trainning on Python program being conducted by Mr. Kushal Das. I am finding this trainning very interesting and useful for our ongoing studies. In the process, I am also getting an orientation in linux. I hope this trainning will help me immensely to understand a lot of issues regarding Python and will brush up my programming knowledge. Thanks and regards.
My real name is Arnau Orriols, from Barcelona, near Spain, Europe. My main calling is pianist, mainly European classical music, just recently graduated from it :D. However, it shares my time with many other passions, such as computing. I started learning programming 2 years ago as one of my degree's courses (yeah, that's right) and since then I've been trying hard to learn more and more everyday.
I started with C++, just the basics, and quickly, as I'm a heavy user of Android, software ideas came to me which drove me to learn Java and Android. If you are ever interested on learning these, they have those awesome tutorials that do really make most teachers redundant (As long as they aren't as good as Kushal, of course ;) )
I'm recently wondering what to do next. My standard move should be to continue my piano studies with a masters degree, but this is not convincing enough for me. I feel like linking these two passions and build me a future on both can coexist, maybe sound and music computing, maybe any other option you could imagine. If anyone has any suggestion for me, I would really apreciate it! :D just write an email, find me on #dgplug or leave a comment at my soon to be inaugurated blog :)
So far it's been 2 weeks of dgplug Summer Training Course. Surprisingly enough, this course is made entirely by volunteers, for the sake of linux and the free knowledge distribution. They are a little Linux community based in the city of Durgapur, north-west India. These guys aren't just Linux contributors; they are some of the great masters out there, a full honor to meet them and learn from them.
So far, though, the course has been quite slow. And that's the problem with free stuff: people don't take it seriously. If we spend 1 week on learning and debating about etiquette, this is because it's a prime necessity in the community. Comunication is vital, my friends. And with online communities, one should learn that this is still workplace, even if you are chatting from your PC, or writting an email. There are procedures you must learn, or you "get fired" (forgive my job reference, it's just explanatory metaphore).
Now after 2 weeks we start learning python. With all the base prepared (VIM, Git, rst) we can now start learning at cruise speed. But people should had taken the firsts 2 weeks seriously, because without these, learning, sharing and enjoying, in this community, can only turn into pain.
Fins aviat! See you soon!
Introduction
My name is Priyanka Kotiyal.I am a second year student pursuing B.Tech with stream Computer Science Engineering from Dr.B.C.Roy Engineering College, Durgapur.My hometown is Kolkata which is in West Bengal, India.
Its my pleasure to be a part of dgplug Summer Training-2013.I have got to know about several things which are as follows :-
3.Python -Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C. The language provides constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale.
This training is really great and useful.It helps us to enhance our skills not only in programming but in other applications too.
I am Manish Jain, a student of B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering at Heritage Institute Of Technology,Kolkata.
I was informed about this program by one of my friend. At first i thought to check out how exciting and interesting the program is. I am enjoying being a part of it.I learned a lot for exmple how to send mail correcting, how to use terminal, how to use github account etc.
I am thankful to the mentor for his patience and his time for this training.

Hello everyone.
I am Rahul Chowdhury. I am from West Bengal, India, and I am doing my B.Tech in Information Technology from National Institute of Technology, Durgapur. I love coding, and for the past few years I have been involved with it.
I am familiar with the following languages:
I came to know about the Summer Training in dgplug from some friends of mine, and decided to try it for myself. I have been attending it for around 3 weeks now, and I must admit that it has been extremely productive. In the training I got to learn about FOSS world and FOSS culture, had the opportunity to interact with differend personalities, get to know the basics of linux and brush up my programming skills.
What I learnt till now:
I am still learning a lot, and this training is going to help me a lot in my later days as a developer and contributer. Our mentor, Kushal Das, though strict and very professional, is extremely efficient in his work. Under his guidance you are bound to excel.
I can see that this summer is going to be extremely productive for me, and I am thankful to Kushal Das for that. The whole training has been a great experience for me so far. I enjoyed it totally, and learned a lot in the process. Looking forward to a great summer ahead :)
