excerpt:
    "This basic Software Carpentry workshop will teach Shell, Git and Python for scientists and PhD students."

Goal

Introduce scientists and PhD students to a powerful toolset to enhance their research software workflow.

Content

A Software Carpentry workshop is conceptualized as a two-day event that covers the basic tools required for a research software workflow:

• The Shell as a foundation for the following tools
• Employing Git as version control system (VCS)
• Introduction into the Python programming language

Details can also be found directly at the GFZ event page.

Requirements

Neither prior knowledge nor experience in those tools is needed. A headset (or at least headphones) is required. Two monitors are recommended.
