Homeworks in this class are a great time to work on some extra skills such as Python and LaTeX!
New to LaTeX?
Fear not! Overleaf is a great way to learn!
Overleaf is free for students, and offers a cheap rate for students if you would like a pro account! They offer an online tutorial too!
Learn LaTex in 30 Minutes
You do not have to use LaTeX, but we do encourage it!
Here we are providing a template for homework submissions in LaTeX via Overleaf
New to Python?
That’s okay! We are all always learning something new about coding! We recommend the anaconda distribution of python.
We offer a few sessions throughout the semester and are available by appointment to offer assistance as needed. We also can provide some resources for those learning to use python (OU accounts have access to LinkedIn Learning!):
Unidata Intro to Python
Unidata Python Workshop Materials
LinkedIn Learning: Learning python
LinkedIn Learning: Python for Data Visualization
LinkedIn Learning: Git and Github basics
If there are other resources you need or think would be good to share, let us know!!
