I followed a two-day Julia training last year,
taught by D P Sanders. The training material
is online at

Re: [Discuss] Julia lesson/tutorial?

2016-03-02 Thread Aron Ahmadia 
I talked with Alan Edelman about this while visiting MIT to teach a
Software Carpentry course a couple of years ago and there's definitely
interest within the Julia Community to see Software Carpentry lessons
developed and taught using Julia.

Cheers,

Re: [Discuss] Julia lesson/tutorial?

2016-03-02 Thread Timothée Poisot 
Hi Tiffany,

I don't think there is any SWC material on Julia. Investing in books at the
moment is not really worth it since the language is pre-1.0, and changing
rapidly.

The documentation is a really good resource [1]. The forthcoming von Csefalvay
book [2] is supposed to be good. But it's, well, not finished.

The julia-users mailing list is also amazing. If you have experience on
the R mailing list, it's ~ the opposite of that. 

Two remarks:

- We're using julia for 90% of what we do in the lab (R is for
  statistics and python for data scraping), and it is going well. And
  fast.

- What would be the interest of SWC to develop a julia (short) lesson
  / port the Inflammation lesson?

[Discuss] Julia lesson/tutorial?

2016-03-02 Thread Tiffany Timbers 
Hi all,

I may be working a little bit with Julia (language) with a collaborator. I
have never used this language before. Do we have any lesson material being
developed on this that I could be pointed to? Or does anyone know any good
tutorials or lessons elsewhere on the web?

Thanks!
Tiffany
