About the Event
The Julia programming language has gained quite some popularity over the last couple of years. What are its strong points, its weak points? Is it an elegant language to work with? Should you learn it, use it? This training tries to give you some insights into the language and how it compares to other similar programming languagues such as MATLAB and Python so that you can answer these questions for yourself. When you complete this training you will
- write Julia expressions
- know how to write functions
- know the control flow statements
- know the data types that Julia supports
- learn how to design your code
- know how to do file I/O
- know how to organize and document your code
- learn about the Julia ecosystem
This training is for you if you want to learn some Julia to see whether it would work for you.
Previous knowledgeYou will need experience programming in some programming language such as Python, MATLAB, R or C/C++/Fortran. This is not a training that teaches you how to program. If you plan to do Julia programming in a Linux or HPC environment you should be familiar with these as well.
