NSA Python Training Material

A brave individual (@chris_swenson) placed a Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) request for NSA’s Python training materials. The course is a text-only document that contains 2 weeks / 8 hour days training to become proficient in Python. The course in unclassified, which allows everyone including those with security clearances to read the document and practice their coding skills.

So, I scanned and OCR’d it. Here is a PDF (warning: 118 MB)https://t.co/i1Fxe6G4MJ pic.twitter.com/jty7Q4PaBK
