[SIGCIS-Members] Python

[Emma Jablonski]

Hi Troy,

I'm not sure if this is the kind of answer you're looking for, but I've
come across articles on hackernews where people have written up their
experiences with the history of Python, which could be a starting point-
https://hn.algolia.com/?q=history+python
E.g. one of the search results is Guido van Rossum's blog with his persona
history:
https://python-history.blogspot.com/2009/01/personal-history-part-1-cwi.html

Best,
Emma
