DESCRIPTION:Python is a modern\, object-oriented programming language\, whi
 ch has become popular in several areas of software development. This cours
 e introduces the basic concepts of the Python programming language and how
  it can be used effectively in high-performance computing. Fast array inte
 rface (numpy)\, message-passing interface (mpi4py)\, and several other use
 ful Python packages such as scipy and matplotlib are introduced. C extensi
 on\, i.e how to integrate code written in C directly as a part of a Python
  program\, are also shown. Examples include prototyping and solving numer
 ical problems with Python\, steering simulations with Python scripts and a
 nalyzing results with the help of Python. Course consists of lectures and 
 hands-on exercises.Learning outcome\nAfter the course the participants sho
 uld be able to write scripts and small programs with Python and able to ut
 ilize some of the key Python packages for scientific computing (numpy\, mp
 i4py\, scipy\, matplotlib)Prerequisites\nParticipants are expected to have
  some experience in computer programming and to be familiar with the basic
  concepts (e.g. variables\, statements\, control structures\, subroutines)
  but previous knowledge of Python is not required. Previous experience in 
 high-performance computing (batch systems\, MPI\, etc.) may be useful.PROG
