30 Nov 9:00 am 10:30 amMSC1090 lecture 24The goal of this course is to prepare graduate students to perform scientific data analysis using the R programming language. Successful students will learn how to use statistical inference and machine-learning tools to gain insight into data sets, as well as be introduced to techniques and best practises for storing, managing and analyzing data. Topics will include: R programming, version control, modular programming, coding best practices, data analysis, machine learning and scientific visualization.Classes will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:00-10:30am, in SS1085. Students willing to take the course as part of their graduate program must enrol through Acorn. This course is part of the IMS graduate program. SS1085 | MSC1090 - Fall 2023 |

9 Jan 11:00 am 12:00 pmPHY1610 Scientific Computing LectureThis course is aimed at reducing your struggle in getting started with computational projects, and make you a more efficient computational scientist. Topics include well-established best practices for developing software as it applies to scientific computations, common numerical techniques and packages, and aspects of high performance computing. While we will introduce the C++ language, in one language or another, students should already have some programming experience. Despite the title, this course is suitable for many physical scientists (chemists, astronomers, ...).This is a graduate course that can be taken for graduate credit by UofT PhD and MSc students. Students that wish to do so, should enrol using ACORN/ROSI.This is an in-person course. | PHY1610 - Winter 2024 |
