Programming in Python (Bonn; Summer 2018)

Materials for the course 'Programming in Physics and Astronomy with C++ or Python' (AIfA; Summer Term 2018)

Goal of the course

The goal of the course is to teach physics/astronomy-students on the master level how to efficiently and flexibly solve scientific programming problems with the easy-to-learn, high-level programming language Python. The course specifically addresses students with no prior programming experience.

Where and when?

  • Where: AIfA CIP-Pool; Room 0.007 in the AIfA ground floor
  • When: 1:00 pm s.t. - 4:00 pm on each Wednesday (except public holidays) in the 2018 Summer Term
  • The first lecture is on the 11th of April 2018.

Preconditions for the course

  • You need a Bonn University account to participate in the course! This consists of a login name (it starts with the letters s6) and an accompanying password. Please make sure that you have the accounf and the password ready for the first lecture on the 11th of April! (Important Note: The Bonn university account is different from your AIfA computer login account (if you have one!). The AIfA account is NOT sufficient for the course!)
  • I assume basic familiarity with the Linux operating system, especially using the Unix command-line. A more detailed description on the required knowledge is here.

Computer / Laptop setup

Each student will work actively with an own computer in the AIfA CIP-Pool. All necessary software is already installed on the computers. For those, who would like to setup own computers/laptops with the proper software, I provide necessary information here.
