{% comment %} Collaborative Notes

If you want to use an Etherpad, go to

  http://pad.software-carpentry.org/YYYY-MM-DD-site

where 'YYYY-MM-DD-site' is the identifier for your workshop, e.g., '2015-06-10-esu'. {% endcomment %} {% if page.collaborative_notes %}

We will use this collaborative document for chatting, taking notes, and sharing URLs and bits of code.

{% endif %}

{% comment %} SYLLABUS

Show what topics will be covered.

  1. If your workshop is R rather than Python, remove the comment around that section and put a comment around the Python section.
  2. Some workshops will delete SQL.
  3. Please make sure the list of topics is synchronized with what you intend to teach.
  4. You may need to move the div's with class="col-md-6" around inside the div's with class="row" to balance the multi-column layout.

This is one of the places where people frequently make mistakes, so please preview your site before committing, and make sure to run 'tools/check' as well. {% endcomment %}

Syllabus

{% if page.carpentry == "swc" %} {% include sc/syllabus.html %} {% elsif page.carpentry == "dc" %} {% include dc/syllabus.html %} {% elsif page.carpentry == "lc" %} {% include lc/syllabus.html %} {% endif %}

{% comment %} SETUP

Delete irrelevant sections from the setup instructions. Each section is inside a 'div' without any classes to make the beginning and end easier to find.

This is the other place where people frequently make mistakes, so please preview your site before committing, and make sure to run 'tools/check' as well. {% endcomment %}

Setup

To participate in a {% if page.carpentry == "swc" %} Software Carpentry {% elsif page.carpentry == "dc" %} Data Carpentry {% elsif page.carpentry == "lc" %} Library Carpentry {% endif %} workshop, you will need access to the software described below. In addition, you will need an up-to-date web browser.

We maintain a list of common issues that occur during installation as a reference for instructors that may be useful on the Configuration Problems and Solutions wiki page.

{% comment %} Start of 'shell' section. {% endcomment %}

The Bash Shell

Bash is a commonly-used shell that gives you the power to do simple tasks more quickly.

Windows

Video Tutorial
  1. Download the Git for Windows installer.
  2. Run the installer and follow the steps bellow:
      {% comment %} Git 2.20.1 Setup {% endcomment %} {% comment %} Information {% endcomment %}
    1. Click on "Next" four times (two times if you've previously installed Git). You don't need to change anything in the Information, location, components, and start menu screens.
    2. Select “Use the nano editor by default” and click on “Next”.
      3. Keep "Use Git and optional Unix tools from the Command Prompt" selected and click on "Next". If you forgot to do this programs that you need for the workshop will not work properly. If this happens rerun the installer and select the appropriate option. {% comment %} Use the OpenSSL library {% endcomment %}
    3. Click on "Next".
      4. {% comment %} Configuring the line ending conversions {% endcomment %}
    4. Keep "Checkout Windows-style, commit Unix-style line endings" selected and click on "Next".
      5. {% comment %} Configuring the terminal emulator to use with Git Bash {% endcomment %}
    5. Keep "Use Windows' default console window" selected and click on "Next".
      6. {% comment %} Configuring experimental performance tweaks {% endcomment %}
    6. Click on "Install".
      7. {% comment %} Installing {% endcomment %} {% comment %} Completing the Git Setup Wizard {% endcomment %}
    7. Click on "Finish".
  3. If your "HOME" environment variable is not set (or you don't know what this is):
    1. Open command prompt (Open Start Menu then type cmd and press [Enter])
    2. Type the following line into the command prompt window exactly as shown:

      setx HOME "%USERPROFILE%"

    3. Press [Enter], you should see SUCCESS: Specified value was saved.
    4. Quit command prompt by typing exit then pressing [Enter]

This will provide you with both Git and Bash in the Git Bash program.

macOS

The default shell in all versions of macOS is Bash, so no need to install anything. You access Bash from the Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities). See the Git installation video tutorial for an example on how to open the Terminal. You may want to keep Terminal in your dock for this workshop.

Linux

The default shell is usually Bash, but if your machine is set up differently you can run it by opening a terminal and typing bash. There is no need to install anything.

{% comment %} End of 'shell' section. {% endcomment %}
{% comment %} Start of 'Git' section. GitHub browser compatability is given at https://help.github.com/articles/supported-browsers/{% endcomment %}

Git

Git is a version control system that lets you track who made changes to what when and has options for easily updating a shared or public version of your code on github.com. You will need a supported web browser (current versions of Chrome, Firefox or Safari, or Internet Explorer version 9 or above).

You will need an account at github.com for parts of the Git lesson. Basic GitHub accounts are free. We encourage you to create a GitHub account if you don't have one already. Please consider what personal information you'd like to reveal. For example, you may want to review these instructions for keeping your email address private provided at GitHub.

Windows

Git should be installed on your computer as part of your Bash install (described above).

macOS

Video Tutorial

For OS X 10.9 and higher, install Git for Mac by downloading and running the most recent "mavericks" installer from this list. After installing Git, there will not be anything in your /Applications folder, as Git is a command line program. For older versions of OS X (10.5-10.8) use the most recent available installer labelled "snow-leopard" available here.

Linux

If Git is not already available on your machine you can try to install it via your distro's package manager. For Debian/Ubuntu run sudo apt-get install git and for Fedora run sudo dnf install git.

{% comment %} End of 'Git' section. {% endcomment %}
{% comment %} Start of 'Python' section. Remove the third paragraph if the workshop will teach Python using something other than the Jupyter notebook. Details at https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/notebook.html#browser-compatibility {% endcomment %}

Python

Python is a popular language for research computing, and great for general-purpose programming as well. Installing all of its research packages individually can be a bit difficult, so we recommend Anaconda, an all-in-one installer. 

<p>
  Regardless of how you choose to install it,
  <strong>please make sure you install Python version 3.x</strong>
  (e.g., 3.6 is fine).
</p>

<p>
  We will teach Python using the <a href="https://jupyter.org/">Jupyter notebook</a>,
  a programming environment that runs in a web browser. For this to work you will need a reasonably
  up-to-date browser. The current versions of the Chrome, Safari and
  Firefox browsers are all
  <a href="https://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/stable/notebook.html#browser-compatibility">supported</a>
  (some older browsers, including Internet Explorer version 9
  and below, are not).
</p>

Windows

Video Tutorial
  1. Open https://www.anaconda.com/download/#windows with your web browser.
  2. Download the Python 3 installer for Windows.
  3. Install Python 3 using all of the defaults for installation except make sure to check Add Anaconda to my PATH environment variable.

macOS

Video Tutorial
  1. Open https://www.anaconda.com/download/#macos with your web browser.
  2. Download the Python 3 installer for OS X.
  3. Install Python 3 using all of the defaults for installation.

Linux

  1. Open https://www.anaconda.com/download/#linux with your web browser.
  2. Download the Python 3 installer for Linux.
    (The installation requires using the shell. If you aren't comfortable doing the installation yourself stop here and request help at the workshop.)
  3. Open a terminal window.
  4. Type 
    bash Anaconda3-
    and then press tab. The name of the file you just downloaded should appear. If it does not, navigate to the folder where you downloaded the file, for example with: 
    cd Downloads
    Then, try again.
  5. Press enter. You will follow the text-only prompts. To move through the text, press the space key. Type yes and press enter to approve the license. Press enter to approve the default location for the files. Type yes and press enter to prepend Anaconda to your PATH (this makes the Anaconda distribution the default Python).
  6. Close the terminal window.
