Contents:

  • Installing libraries
  • Numpy
  • Scipy
  • Matplotlib
  • MPI python
  • Multithreading
  • Compiling

Prerequisite:

  • Being able to use SSH with private keys 
  • Being familiar with a text editor 
  • Mastering the Linux command line and the GNU utilities (mkdir, cp, scp, etc.)
  • Working knowledge of Python

Type: Hands-on
Target audience: Confirmed Python user
Must: This session is a must-have for anyone thinks Python is slow.
