IDEaS Summer Skills Workshop 2017
Welcome to the Insitute for Data Engineering and Science (IDEaS) Summer Skills Workshop 2017!
This workshop will attempt to engage graduate students and postdocs in the comptational sciences, natural sciences, and engineering disciplines to provide an introduction to scientific computing and programming with emphasis on the following topics:
- Programming in Python
- Numerical Linear Algebra
- Databases
- Machine Learning
- High-Performance Computing
This workshop will consist of a one-hour lecture each week by a faculty member covering one of the above topics (one lecture per topic), where a weekly project meant to acquaint participants with the topic will be assigned. This lecture will then be followed by a hands-on session in which the project and any necessary skills will be discussed, and any questions addressed. This repository is meant to accompany these hands-on sessions and projects, as well as introducing workshop participants with the principles of social coding.
