There will be a workshop on computational skills on May 19th in the Partee Room starting at 11, ending probably sometime around 2. We'll have a break for lunch provided by the department, so please let me know soon if you plan to come so we can get enough food.
The theme is "answers to questions you didn't know to ask."
We'll cover:
- how to avoid bugs
- tools and tricks to save you time
- what to do if your code is too slow
- comparison of programming languages and styles
We won't cover:
- an intro to any particular language
- any particular computational linguistics techniques
Programming experience is not required but would give you a concrete sense of how the advice applies.
