sponsored by Helmholtz Information & Data Science Academy (HIDA)
in cooperation with The Carpentries.
Software Carpentry (Shell, Git, Plotting and Programming in Python)
This workshop includes an introduction to Bash shell scripting and version control with Git. It also covers an introduction to programming in Python for people with little or no previous programming experience. It uses plotting as its motivating example to teach participants basics in this programming language (e.g., variable assignment, data types, lists, loops, writing own functions, plotting)
To get an idea of the topics covered in this workshop, you can have a look at the example lesson plans for each of the three parts (Shell, Git and Plotting and Programming in Python) here. But please be aware that the exact content covered in each course can vary slightly, depending on the course instructors and time constraints. You will get more information on this course closer to the starting date.
