The IDI-BD2K project and the AECC is organizing two workshops January 11-12, 2019 in UPR Rio Piedras, Department of Computer Science. We will be running Software Carpentry workshops in Python and R.
Software Carpentry aims to help researchers get their work done in less time and with less pain by teaching them basic research computing skills. This hands-on workshops will cover basic concepts and tools, including program design, version control, data management, and task automation. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they have learned to their own research problems.
Python is a general purpose scripting language popular in scientific computing.
R is a statistical computing language with extensive applications in bio-statistics and ecology.
Please register only for the version you will attend. The workshops will be held at the same time.
