Are you interested in learning more about programming and tools for research?
UofT Coders is a place for researchers and learners to get together, ask questions, share ideas and
skills, and build community with others at the University of Toronto. UofT Coders meets every week on Thursdays at 6 PM, year round. Everyone is welcome, regardless of coding experience or background.
Most UofT Coders sessions are hour-long tutorials where one person from our community leads a hands-on demonstration of a tool, package or piece of code, while everyone else follows along. These tutorials are led by volunteers, and our members design the curriculum and schedule. We also get together for open co-working sessions to work on our own research coding and get help with questions as they arise.
Our next meeting will be Introduction to Programming in Python on Thursday Jan 10th at 6 PM in MADLab at Gerstein library. Here is the most recent schedule (and our full up-to-date schedule for the winter term is up here https://github.com/UofTCoders/studyGroup/issues/428.
