Introduction to Julia Programming for Data Science and Scientific Computing

Professor involved: dott. Massimiliano Ghiotto, prof. Giancarlo Sangalli

Course learning outcomes/abstract: This reading course introduces students to Julia, a high-performance programming language designed for technical computing, data science, and machine learning. It covers the fundamentals of Julia, focusing on its syntax, core features, and powerful libraries, emphasising practical applications in data analysis, numerical computation, and visualization. By the end of the course, participants will gain a strong understanding of how to leverage Julia’s speed and expressiveness for scientific and computational tasks.

Goals: The objective of this course is to provide students with a foundational understanding of the Julia programming language. By the end of the course, students will be able to efficiently use Julia to solve computational problems in different areas.
