UCL-ARC will be hosting an Introduction to Julia workshop.

This workshop, aimed at graduate students and other researchers, introduces attendees to the Julia programming language, a modern dynamic programming language. The target audience is learners who have some coding experience and are interested in learning a language specifically designed for scientific computing, which can potentially speed up their workflows.

You need to understand the concepts of files and directories, as well as arrays and indices. It is beneficial to have some programming experience in another language.

After attending this workshop, you will be able to:

• Use the Julia REPL
• Understand Julia's type system
• Use the package manager to install packages and create new ones
• Use an IDE and Pluto to work with Julia
• Plot your data
• Write functions using julia
• Structure your code well to make it easy to read, edit and reuse.
