This short course runs for the first eight weeks of the quarter and is offered each quarter during the academic year. It is highly recommended for students with no prior programming experience who are expected to use MATLAB in math, science, or engineering courses. It will consist of interactive lectures and application-based assignments.nThe goal of the short course is to make students fluent in MATLAB and to provide familiarity with its wide array of features. The course covers an introduction of basic programming concepts, data structures, and control/flow; and an introduction to scientific computing in MATLAB, scripts, functions, visualization, simulation, efficient algorithm implementation, toolboxes, and more.

This short course runs for the first eight weeks of the quarter and is offered each quarter during the academic year. It is recommended for students who want to use Python in math, science, or engineering courses and for students who want to learn the basics of Python programming. The goal of the short course is to familiarize students with Python¿s tools for scientific computing. Lectures will be interactive with a focus on learning by example, and assignments will be application-driven. Some prior programming experience is highly recommended.nTopics covered include control flow, basic data structures, File I/O, and an introduction to NumPy/SciPy.
