[LA-SiGMA] HPC Training: Practical Python Programming

[Feng Chen]

Dear All,

The Schedule for the Fall 2016 HPC Training is available at http://www.hpc.lsu.edu/training/tutorials.php.

Our next HPC training will be held on Wednesday, October 19 at 9:00 AM in 307 Frey Computing Service Center and broadcast through WebEx for remote users. Note that all HPC trainings will start at 9:00AM.

Wednesday, October 19,2016: Practical Python Programming
This training will provide a practical introduction to Python programming language for science and engineering computations, focusing on popular Python modules such as numpy, scipy and matplotlib to get users familiar with building quick Python solutions for real world engineering/science applications.
Prerequisites: No prior Python programming knowledge is assumed but some experience in a programming language will be useful. A desktop/laptop with a Python programming environment installed (such as Anaconda Python); OR, LONI/LSU HPC account, SSH client such as Putty to access Python installed on HPC/LONI clusters

Next training:

Wednesday, October 26,2016: Performance Analysis of Matlab Code
Matlab is a high-level language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming. In this training we will discuss how to efficiently prepare the Matlab code that focuses on good performance. A variety of optimization techniques will be analyzed, as well as the speedup of the performance of the Matlab applications.
Prerequisites: Calculus; Linear algebra; Some experience in Matlab coding would be helpful
