Before we get into the #TechtivitiesOfTheMonth, letโ€™s warm up with some #TechNews for this month:

"The idea behind metamobility is that space, time and distance will all become irrelevant. By connecting robots to the metaverse, we will be able to move freely between both the real world and virtual reality," said Automaker Hyundai Motor Group's President, Mr Song. ๐Ÿค–

With advances in tech, the future where humans in the metaverse can control robots that can perform tasks for them in any location in the real world is becoming a reality! Find out more about this vision here! ๐Ÿ‘“

To wrap up our #TechtivitiesOfTheMonth, here is a fun #TechFact!

Do you think that Python (the programming language) was named after a snake? Contrary to how it sounds, the programming language got its name from the popular British comedy series "Monty Python's Flying Circus"! (Source)

Python is a famous programming language as it is easy to learn, and there are many libraries available that can be used in various types of projects, such as games, websites, data analytics, graphics, etc. This is why we at Coding Lab focus on it as one of the key languages for our students to learn in depth.

Python was implemented by Guido van Rossum, and at that time, he was also reading the published scripts from Monty Python's Flying Circus. Hence, some inspiration was drawn from the series.
