Workshop Cycle: Git Workshop by Robeco
Note: This workshop is for students in their last year of Bachelor and Master students.
The biggest group project in the econometrics bachelor and master is coming up: the Seminar! In groups of 4, you will be working on an assignment that will require a lot of programming. This workshop will get you started on effectively developing and maintaining your code while the entire group works on it simultaneously. You will no longer have to send around functions with names like main_v2_final_thisonereallyisfinal.py!
The software program Git is perfect for collaborating on coding projects. Git is free and works for any programming language. In this workshop, the quantitative investment department of Robeco will get you started with basic saving, sharing and developing code via Git and GitHub. After attending, you will master the basics of Git and hopefully be able to apply it to your coding assignments.
During the workshop, you will work in pairs. You can either fill in the name of your partner in the subscription form or let us assign a partner to you. Note that both people from a couple have to fill in the subscription form.
The workshop takes place in a computer room, but feel free to bring your laptop.
