Coding for researchers: a three-day workshop
Coding essentials for researchers: a three-day workshop
You do not have to be an expert in computer programming to be a good scientist. Nevertheless, some basic knowledge of programming fundamentals might be very useful in your professional toolbox. This workshop is a hands-on training covering the basic programming skills needed to get you started working reproducibly with code.
Due to great success, the first workshop edition of 29 March is already fully booked. Two new editions are being planned, of which we will announce the dates later. If you would like to participate, you can register and we will keep you updated.
The workshop covers:
• Unix shell, task automation
• Version control with Git, keeping a record of changes
• Python programming essentials
The workshop is a joint effort of the Institute of Data Science, the ICT Service Centre, and the University Library.
