After discussion we moved to next part for practical session in cse lab-03 to learn python from kushal das.He started the python programming with the introduction of functional programming i.e.scheme language.newbie learned how to write programs in python.they started it from hello world followed by calculator,condition checking,looking,string splitting,sorting of lists.They shows their interest in python through solving problems.Since python is meant for lazy people those who like to write less code.We helped the students in debugging python problems during practice session along with kushal das.

The Session ends with the distribution of fedora stickers among students.Thereafter we go for a photography with kushal at college in the evening.We are excepting that some of the contributors may come in future for open source.We are thinking of organising weekly meetings on fedora in our college.
