So I was given credits for programming 3 but I see I don't almost half the topics in the syllabus, should i mayhaps perhaps (1) take the class? OR (2)should i talk to one of the instructors and work on a self-paced syllabus for that class?😕
Additionally, if there are any resources for Scientific Programming courses, syllabus, textbooks or notes if you are organized and willing, it would help a lot!

Looking for a #book to learn #python for #ScientificProgramming ? Look no further! "Python for Scientists" is here in its third edition with lots of new content discussing #numpy, #SciPy, #pandas, efficient python #programming and how to publish your code! Have a look here: https://www.cambridge.org/us/universitypress/subjects/mathematics/computational-science/python-scientists-3rd-edition #bookrecommendation #learnpython #cambridgeuniversitypress

I still lean toward static builds for distribution but containers make c++ dev so much less terrible, mostly.

I also really enjoyed the lightning talk by Toni Peter https://tonipeter.de/ at #RustSciComp23 who managed in 7 minutes to give a really convincing example of how the #Rust compiler forbids you to shoot yourself in the foot, and allows you to avoid yet another memory safety trap without even having to think about it.

It also enables compile-time unit libraries to check physical units at compile time without any numerical overhead at runtime.

Fantastic blogpost series by @aras on the compression of ND (with N=2) float arrays: https://aras-p.info/blog/2023/01/29/Float-Compression-0-Intro/

If you’ve come to #Python directly from #MATLAB, as I have, and you used to use meshgrid in MATLAB, you possibly use it in exactly the same way in Python?

I did for a very long time…

But Python has more options which can save you execution time and memory

Here’s my exploration of #NumPy’s #meshgrid and other related functions

"Scientific discoveries rightly get top billing in the media. But Nature this week looks behind the scenes, at the key pieces of code that have transformed research over the past few decades."
