Catalogue data
| Abstract | This course provides important basic concepts for interdisciplinary programming projects. The programming language is Python and Matlab. |
| Learning objective | Students learn - how to encode a problem into a program, test the program, and correct errors. - to understand and improve existing code. - to implement models from the natural sciences as a simulation. |
| Content | The following programming concepts are introduced in the lecture: 1. Variables, data types 2. Condition check, Loops, logics 3. Arrays 4. Functions 5. Matrices 6. Random In the practical part of the course, students work on small programming projects with a context from natural sciences. Electronic tutorials are available as preparation. |
