Course goals
In this course, you will become familiar with tools and best practices for scientific software development. This course will not teach a programming language, but the tools you need to do programming well and avoid common inefficiency traps. These tools are practically a requirement for any scientist that has to do their own programming. The main focus is on using Git for efficiently writing and maintaining research software.
Format
This is an informal and interactive event with type-along lessons, live coding, and exercises. Learners are divided into exercise teams for interactivity - register with a friend! If you feel a bit more confident in the material, you can register as an exercise leader.
