Perhaps you want to test a system using Python test tools, or use an existing library written in C? These are all benefits of mixed language programming. This course would be especially suitable for domain specialists (such as in life sciences and bioinformatics) or data scientists who are not expert-level programmers but have some programming experience "on the side" which they use in the course of their research or work. This course could help you to make your programming faster or more efficient. Learning Outcomes: • This course will introduce some aspects of C that could be less familiar to Python programmers, such as types or pointers, as well as how to create libraries that can be called from Python. • You will learn in detail about ctypes, a library that provides data types compatible with C and allows calling functions from shared libraries. • You will learn how to pass arguments to these functions, recover return values and modify their arguments. A particular emphasis will be placed on handling Numpy arrays. • The course will be completed by a series of practical exercises where the attendees will have the opportunity to experiment with these concepts for themselves. Prerequisites: Professional competence in Python programming. ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
