2018-winter-oss's Introduction

UBC Scientific Software Seminar

The UBC Scientific Software Seminar brings together students, graduates, fellows and faculty at UBC to develop software skills for science.

Winter 2018 Open Sources Software: How to Contribute to Open Source Software Projects

We use free open source software in our data science, machine learning and scientific computing projects all the time. And free open source software exists because of the efforts of many people working collaboratively. The goal of this seminar is to gain the skills required to become contributors to the open source software projects we use everyday. Everyone is invited!

LEARNING GOALS

  • To master Git for version control
  • To master GitHub for collaborative software development
  • To confidently search GitHub for projects, engage thoughtfully on the issues and make pull requests to fix issues
  • To become regular contributors to open source software projects

SCHEDULE

Our open source software seminar meets every Thursday 4-5pm in LSK 121. Please join the UBCS3 mailing list to receive weekly updates about the seminar.

How to use the development version of Sympy on Jupyter.

How to use the development version of Sympy on Jupyter.

Open a terminal, and type in the following:
git clone https://github.com/sympy/sympy.git: Dev_Version

Once complete you can check your Home tree and you will notice a new Folder called 'Dev Version', now you can open it and create a new notebook in the folder; this folder will run the development version of Sympy once imported. All notebooks from outside this folder will use the default Sympy version.

Alternatively, from the terminal you can create a new notebook in the 'Dev Version' folder through the terminal by typing the following:
mv InsertName.ipynb Dev_Version/

To update the entire folder so it has the latest version, you can go into the terminal and do the following:
cd Dev_Version/
git fetch

If you want to update only specific files you can type in the following:
cd Dev_Version/
git checkout origin/master main.c

Where the remote is called origin and you only want to update main.c.
