Writing Clean Code in Python

Research Computing Center

John Crerar Library - Kathleen A. Zar Room

Abstract: 
The research community is infamous for its lack of adherence to good practices of software development. This is typically justified by researchers feeling pressure to publish results quickly, ultimately resulting in messy and unreadable code that ends up being thrown away. It is not only beneficial to keep projects organized for your own sake, but it is also extremely important for others who may want to use your code in the future. In this hands-on workshop we will dive into industry best practices for Python programming to ensure that your code is well organized, versioned, documented, tested, and published in such a way that others will be able to easily understand and extend your results.
Objectives:
By the end of this workshop participants will have the skills to:
•	Adopt and enforce a consistent coding style
•	Create extensible code
•	Document code properly
•	Comply with SOLID Principles

Level: Introductory 
Duration: 2 hours
Prerequisites:
 All participants are expected to bring a laptop with a Mac, Linux, or Windows operating system that they have administrative privileges on. Having prior programming experience is helpful but not required. An RCC account is helpful but not required.
