OBJECTIVE OF WORKSHOP

The main objective of this workshop is to provide

hands-on in various Free/Open Source Software tools

like Python for research in computer science available

as free software. The sheer number of softwares

available makes it difficult to choose a place to start.

Most of the tools available need a very steep learning

curve. In this workshop, we take a look at the most

commonly used research tools available which not

only provides answers to research problems, but also

help to learn more about a research topic. This

workshop is organized over one week with the help of

ample hands-on exercises; you will get introduced to

the different types of variables in python, the

peculiarities of python and good programming habits.

This workshop will provide you an ideal stepping stone

for further developing programming skills in Python
