[Registration for this workshop is now closed.]
The IAM is sponsoring a workshop on the Julia programming language that will be held over five Tuesdays/Thursdays, from 6 pm to 8 pm.
Dates: Sept 12, 17, 19, 24, and 26, 6:00-8:00 pm
Location: IAM Lounge (LSK 306)
Register below by Tuesday, Sept. 10
The following topics will be covered:
Foundations
- installation
- syntax
- type system
Performance
- faster code
- types revisited
Structure
- large programs
- modules
- packages
The workshop sessions will be led by IAM alum Mia Kramer (MSc ’22, UBC CS), currently a scientific software developer at 1QBit.
Although no previous experience with Julia is required, it’s expected that attendees will have experience with another programming language, such as Python or Matlab. Because the workshop sessions are tightly integrated, we ask that all workshop participants commit to attending all three sessions. Small assignments will be given after each session, and there will be an opportunity to form interests groups to continue learning and collaborating on more specialized topics.
