Introductory Programming: Unix Shell, Git and Python

Thursday, May 5, 12:30-4 p.m.

Online

Using software-carpentry.org materials this workshop introduces you to the fundamentals of the Unix Shell, Version Control and Python

 

This is a beginner level series that is hands-on, covering the fundamentals of Python including data types, conditional statements, loops and functions, as well as program design, version control, data management, and task automation. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they have learned to their own research problems. The goal is to teach the practical knowledge needed to start programming, debugging and using Python in everyday tasks.

You do not need to have any previous knowledge of the tools that will be presented at the workshop.

You do need to have a laptop with a Mac, Linux or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc) on which you have administrative privileges, as you will need to pre-load specific software packages.
