User networking session: Python Tutorial (2)

Please note that this session will be given a lecture in Japanese.
 

Overview

User networking session aims to provide our users with an opportunity where our users can exchange the information on computational science and discussed the issues regarding supercomputing. Python Tutorial is held as a part of user support activities in this user networking session.
Not only the users of supercomputing system in the Cybermedia Center but also the following user candidates in both academia and industry:

・Those who are interested in computer simulations
・Those who have never used supercomputing systems although being interested or those who just stated to use supercomputing systems.
・Those who are interested in programming (especially in Python programming)
can participate this networking session.

 

About Python Tutorial (2)

  • This tutorial targets the novice users like the learners who have experienced Python Tutorial (1) conducted in the past. The Python Tutorial (2) will be performed in a hands-on style through practical programming examples.
  • In this tutorial, a graduate student in the Research Division of Applied Information Systems at the Cybermedia Center at Osaka University is in charge as the lecturer of this tutorial, in a cooperation with Prof. Shinji Shimojo and Associate Prof. Susumu Date. Based on the programming experience and expertise acquired through his graduate study, the graduate student will give a practical lecture on Python. Everybody including those who want to begin learning Python and those who gave up Python in the past and want to try again are welcome to join.
  •  

    The IDE mainly used in this tutorial is Google Collaboratory. It is available with free of charge but requires your Google account. Please refer here. Of course, you can join with your favorite IDE for Python programming.
