Programming Basics

Week 1

Working environment

Accounting: Logbook, PmWiki, GitHUb

Programming environment:

  • Linux, Bash Shell, Gmake

To Do:

  • System programming - Bash: startup files, environment variables, customization
  • Application programming: Read C++ Chapter 4, pp107-114,pp127-138. Special attention: data types, pointers, references.
    • Write, compile, and run HelloWorld.C. Using GitHub create a project "Sound2Picture".
    • Under Linux create gmake environment for the projects; recompile HelloWord binary using gmake, save the entire project in GitHub.
 **Document everything in the Logbook and PmWiki

Week 2

C++ programming

  • Improve the structure of project "Battleship"
    • /battleship
      • /bin
      • /doc
      • /include
      • /src
      • /build
    • Readme
    • setup.sh
  • create and use "class SUBattleship"

Programming specials:

  • main program argument processing
  • classes, namespaces, structures, private and public class members
  • constructors, destructors, functions
  • passing functions arguments by value and by reference
  • use of standard libraries (strings, math, iostream, e.t.c. )

Week 3

C++ programming

  • Read and write binary and text files
  • Create a program to convert an image into sound file and vice versa ( class SUConvert)

System environment

  • environment modules
  • CVMFS, access to external software libraries

Week 4

C++ programming

  • ROOT, simulation of data analysis
    • ntuples, histograms, fits

Weeks 4-6

  • ROOT TMVA; use of neural networks for data classification
  • use of GPU for deep neural network calculations

Weeks 6-8

  • PYTHON, PYTHON scripts, libraries, packages
  • TensorFlow for neural networks
