[Grad-postdoc-assn] Fwd: Opportunity for interns: Python Tutorial and Hackathon

[Valerie Sloan]

Dear all,

My apologies, I had tried to send that email to the internship leaders at
NCAR. Given that, if you are interested in attending this Python tutorial
and hackathon, please ask Matt Long in NCAR CGD if there is room, at
mclong at ucar.edu.

Have a lovely weekend!

Val

Dear Internship Leads,

Matt Long in CGD is offering a tutorial and hackathon on Python in early
June, and is making this available to undergrads and grad students in
NCAR's internship program.  Please consider giving your student the
opportunity to do this workshop, if you think it would be valuable for
them. A description is below, along with a Google form for people to sign
up.

If you have questions, please contact Matt Long at mclong at ucar.edu.

Thank you,
Valerie

CGD-CISL Python Tutorial and Hackathon
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScbxANTrSC7LIxU0L9ne-FgdTrUbKc6V956wqMkJAPo6OvdcA/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&usp=mail_form_link>
We're planning a Python Tutorial and Hackathon 3-5 June at the Mesa Lab.

The objectives:
- Spin up on Python as an analysis tool (zero to 60);
- Work through example analyses, from number crunching to visualization;
- Understand Python package design;
- Gain familiarity with git workflow and package development;
- Tackle a collaborative coding project;
- Something else you think is missing?

The format of this event will include instructional lectures as well as
open-ended project time. The expectation is that participants will work
collaboratively on projects of personal interest.

It will be helpful for those unfamiliar with Python to do some preparation
before the event. Here's some instructional material:

The readme of this repo provides some instruction for getting up and
running with JupyterLab on CISL machines:
