Software Carpentry with Python: Coding for Beginners

Software Carpentry is a volunteer organization whose goal is to make scientists more productive, and their work more reliable, by teaching them basic computing skills. Founded in 1998, it runs short, intensive workshops that cover program design, version control, testing, and task automation.

Software Carpentry

This event is an example-driven four-day workshop on basic computing skills. Short tutorials alternate with hands-on practical exercises.

Join us for a four-day Software Carpentry workshop, taking place 18-21 May from 10 am - 2 pm pm Eastern Time (UTC -4). Designed to be interactive rather than lecture-based, Carpentries workshops emphasize active participation, with lessons that build progressively. Please note that the workshop will not be recorded, and we strongly recommend attending in real time.This beginner-friendly Software Carpentry workshop covers Shell, Git, and Python and provides a solid foundation for further self-directed learning. You will leave the workshop feeling prepared to:<ul><li>use the command-line to navigate file structures and work with files</li><li>write custom Bash scripts to automate repetitive analyses</li><li>implement simple Git workflows for tracking work</li><li>Use conditionals and loops, write functions, and run programs from the command line using Python</li></ul>Each session combines short tutorials with hands-on exercises, encouraging collaboration and real-world application of skills to your own work.Participants must use a laptop or desktop (not a tablet) with administrative privileges to fully engage in the workshop activities.For more information about Software Carpentry and the workshop curriculum, visit <a href="http://software-carpentry.org" title="http://software-carpentry.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://software-carpentry.org</a>.For answers to frequently asked questions, <a href="https://carpentries.org/workshops/workshops-faq/#learners" title="https://carpentries.org/workshops/workshops-faq/#learners" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">please visit our FAQ</a>.
