Description

Python is a powerful, popular language in scientific computing. You can use it in tasks ranging from interactive data analysis to writing entire scientific software systems.

In this three-part training we will introduce the Python 3 language; explore a few common ways to use it on the cluster; and give an introduction to Numpy, Scipy and Matplotlib, the main numerical libraries for Python.

Prerequisites: Some brief exposure to progamming. A Skill Pill, a few Matlab scripts or similar should be plenty. Also, ask for access to the Sango and Tombo clusters.

Session 3

We will introduce the powerful Numpy, Scipy and Matplotlib libraries in an interactive session where we learn the basic usage, how to use them for interactive computations and look at a few common use cases.
