Learning outcomes
|
The course provides an introduction into the Python language emphesizing its usage in the scientific computing as a glue tool and scripting language for the specialized numerical software. The closing part of the course is an introduction to the paralell programing and high-performance computing.
After the course the student should be able to program its own specialized scripts, apply basic paralellization techniques, and executing jobs on paralellel computers.
