OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
About the workshop
Creating reproducible code can be a daunting task and it is often unclear where to start. In this workshop, we aim to demonstrate Github and how to make your first open source contribution. We will discuss common problems that you may face when getting started. The course will utilize Python software throughout and participants will need to bring their own laptops in order to fully engage with the coding exercises.
Who is it for?
Anyone working in data science or a closely related field who is interested in making their code more reproducible.
Anyone with basic experience of coding in a programming language (e.g. R, Stata, Python)
