Programming for Science Applications

Eniac4.jpg

This course provides knowledge of a scripting language (python) that serves as a front-end to popular packages and frameworks, along with a compiled language (C++). Since programming for scientific applications is not a static topic and new languages are emerging at a high rate the students will be also exposed to modern relatives of these languages (Julia and D). Students will study and practice object-oriented scientific programming with the scripting and compiled lan- guage. In the laboratory component of the course students will apply the concepts learned in several science applications.
