Dear all, we would like to remind you about our CAP workshop, which will take place in Siegen from August 28 to August 31, 2018:
https://homalg-project.github.io/capdays-2018/ The workshop aims at mathematicians who want to learn about the CAP project, categorical programming, and structuring implementations in a categorical way. The workshop is suitable for both GAP newcomers and veteran GAP programmers. CAP (Categories, Algorithms, Programming) is a software project for constructive category theory written in GAP. It facilitates both the realization of specific instances of categories and the implementation of generic categorical algorithms. The workshop is split in three parts: On the first day, several CAP users give talks about their work, and how they have incorporated CAP in their work. The first talk of the day will be an overview about the CAP project and some of its capabilities. On the second day it is possible to participate in a CAP tutorial, where the first steps of organizing code with CAP and implementing a category in CAP will be explained, along with examples and exercises. Furthermore, available categories in CAP will be demonstrated. The tutorial is especially suitable for newcomers. No deep knowledge of category theory is expected. On the third and fourth day there will be a coding sprint. Participants are welcome to form groups and work on projects of their interest. Help for using CAP and implementing categories in CAP is available all the time. For the detailed program see https://homalg-project.github.io/capdays-2018/program/ If you want to come to the CAP Days, you can register on the website: https://homalg-project.github.io/capdays-2018/registration/ Best regards, Sebastian Gutsche & Sebastian Posur _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@gap-system.org https://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
