Introduction to Research Software Development with MATLAB

Live Session: Thursday May 16^th, 2 PM – 5 PM (3 hours)

Instructor: Dr. Thomas Künzel, The MathWorks Academia Team

As a (junior-) scientist you wear many hats. Among many other things you often must be a bit of a software developer to tackle the analytical problems that come up during your projects. In this course we will present concepts and tools for your contribution to collaborative development of research software. We will give you a hands-on introduction to good development practices, writing clean code and using source-code control with MATLAB. This workshop will give you a running start when it comes to writing maintainable research software.

 

Topics

• Best practices for collaborative research software development

• Hands-on exercises on data analysis: from low-code tools to writing clean code

• Using the git-integration for source control in MATLAB

• How to share your MATLAB code with collaborators

  

Who is this for?

This introductory is course is designed for students, researchers and early career scientists with beginner to intermediate programming experience.
