This workshop is designed for researchers and enables non-experts to develop computing skills for research analysis. We will cover basic concepts and tools, such as - working with libraries and data frames; reading and plotting data; creating and using functions; the shell using command-line applications; cleaning and transforming data; and more. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they This is a free workshop and is open to all University of California students, staff, and faculty. have learned to their own research problems.
For more information on what we teach and why, please see our paper "Best Practices for Scientific Computing".
Who: This workshop is open to UCSD students, staff, and faculty.
You don't need to have any previous knowledge of programming or the tools presented in the workshop to attend. A laptop is required for each session.

We will be using the specific software downloads and data for each lesson. Please refer to the listing of downloads needed for each session you'll be attending as provided at this link.
We will use HackMD collaborative notes for taking notes, and sharing URLs and bits of code. The links to each session are listed at this link.
To participate in a {% if site.carpentry == "swc" %} Software Carpentry {% elsif site.carpentry == "dc" %} Data Carpentry {% elsif site.carpentry == "lc" %} Library Carpentry {% endif %} workshop, you will need access to the software described below. In addition, you will need an up-to-date web browser.
We maintain a list of common issues that occur during installation as a reference for instructors that may be useful on the Configuration Problems and Solutions wiki page.
