The official Python IRC channel, on the Freenode network.
#python is a channel for discussing the Python programming language. People of all skill levels are welcome to participate.
Please don't paste into the channel! Use a pastebin service such as https://bpaste.net/ or https://gist.github.com/, and post the link.
To ensure that everyone has a pleasant experience, we ask that participants take these guidelines to heart:
Follow the Python Software Foundation's Code of Conduct. We want people to be kind, respectful and considerate. #python is a place for everyone to learn about Python.
Avoid strong or sexual language. People from all ages, nationalities and cultures use #python, so please keep the language and demeanor acceptable to all.
Try to keep the discussion on-topic. #python is not a social chat channel; it is a technical help channel. Off-topic discussions can be moved to #python-offtopic or another channel.
Assume best intentions. People are in #python because they want to learn about Python, or because they want to help others with Python.
#python requires you to register your nickname with Freenode. For more information about registering on Freenode, see the registration KB article, and if you still have trouble, ask in #freenode.
Ask in #python-ops for help.
Ask in #python-ops for help. If no one is around, try asking #freenode staffers for help.
