University of Toronto

Nov 7-8, 2011

Software Carpentry is teaming up with Scinet and The Hacker Within to host a 2 day boot camp on software engineering at the University of Toronto for graduate students in the sciences. The boot camp is sold out, but we'll be posting all of our course materials here for anyone who wants to use them.

Information for Attendees

Please follow the instructions on the setup page before November 7 so we can get a quick start.

The SWC Bootcamp will be covering several topics including data storage, the shell, and a lot of Python. Everything is interactive, which means you should bring a laptop and your power cord with you both days.
