Meet the PyCharm Team in Bilbao, Spain, at EuroPython 2015

Rust is a new programming language from Mozilla. It is fast, safe and beautiful. It is also a very good option when you need performance. In this talk we’re going to look at Rust and see what it offers and how we can leverage it as Python developers. And we’ll do it with a case study: a statistical profiler for Python.

NUMPY: VECTORIZE YOUR BRAIN – Thursday, July 23, at 12:30
by Ekaterina Tuzova

NumPy is the fundamental Python package for scientific computing. However, being efficient with NumPy might require slight changes in how you write Python code.
I’m going to show you the basic idioms essential for fast numerical computations in Python with NumPy. We’ll see why Python loops are slow and why vectorizing these operations with NumPy can often be good.
Topics covered in this talk include array creation, broadcasting, universal functions, aggregations, slicing and indexing. Even if you’re not using NumPy, you’ll benefit from this talk.

HOW YOU CAN BENEFIT FROM TYPE HINTS – Friday, July 24, at 11:45
by Andrey Vlasovskikh

PEP 484 introduces type hints for Python 3. Type hints can increase the readability of our code for both humans and tools, and lead to better and safer outcomes. And we’ll prove it in this talk!
We’re going to take a closer look at type hints and see practical examples of where they can be used and what value they provide. We’ll see that simple class types and built-in collection types are often enough for our public APIs. We’ll also discuss how you can benefit from type hinting stubs for third-party libraries and briefly cover more advanced scenarios like generic types.
