16 Nov 9:00 am 10:30 amMSC1090 lecture 20The 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![]() |
20 Nov 9:00 amIris data set problem is dueC++ is a high level programming language that is extremely useful for scientific applications. The language has historically had a bad reputation, but modern C++ is much improved so that your code can be relatively short and elegant. In this workshop we will teach the basics of C++ for people who are familiar with the basics of programming, and we will especially compare and contrast C++ with Python (only the material covered in SCMP142 "Intro to Programming with Python" is required). Knowing multiple programming languages may be a useful skill: while Python is a wonderful programming language, execution speed is often a practical issue for pure Python applications. For applications where this is an issue, coding in C++ can significantly improve performance. As C++ can relatively easily be integrated in a Python project, it is also possible (and common) to code just the bottleneck in that language.Format: Virtual | SCMP241 - Nov 2023 |
20 Nov 1:00 pm 4:00 pmGIT Version ControlUsing version control for your scripts, codes, documents, papers, and even data, allows you to track changes, keep backups, and facilitate collaboration. In this workshop, you will learn the basics of version control with the popular distributed version control software GIT. This workshop assumes that students have an understanding of basic Linux shell commands.Format: Virtual Virtual | DAT161 - Nov 2023![]() |

22 Nov 1:00 pm 2:00 pmCO Colloquium: Web Scraping in PythonThis week's colloquium: "Web Scraping in Python" by Yohai Meiron from SciNet. The Compute Ontario Colloquia are weekly Zoom presentations on Advanced Research Computing, High Performance Computing, Research Data Management, and Research Software topics, delivered by staff from three Compute Ontario consortia (CAC, SciNet, SHARCNET) and guest speakers. The colloquia are one hour long and include time for questions. No enrollment or registration is required. Most presentations are recorded and uploaded to the hosting consortium video channel.

1 Dec 1:00 pm 4:00 pmIntro to Linux Command LineWorking with many of the HPC systems (like those at SciNet) involves using the Linux/UNIX command line. This provides a very powerful interface, but it can be quite daunting for the uninitiated. In this half-day session, you can become initiated with this coursse which will cover basic commands. It could be a great boon for your productivity.Format: Virtual Virtual | SCMP101 - Dec 2023![]() |
