COG Summer Workshops 2023

The Coding Outreach Group (COG) weekly summer workshops focus on a specific research skill or topic and aim to have participants actively involved. These workshops try to be as hands-on as possible and for attendees to get the most out of the workshops, they should ideally already have some basic coding experience (i.e., be able to run an analysis in at least one coding language). Some topics may look familiar from previous years (2022, 2021 and 2020), however, we have recruited new presenters for these repeated topics, who will provide their unique point of view and methodology. People new to coding are welcome to attend but may not receive the adequate help needed to follow along with the content. If you would like to learn some basic coding, we have a list of tutorials for various programming languages.

If you aren't familiar and are having trouble with downloading the materials, consider checking this tutorial that outlines a few ways to download Github files and repositories.

cog_summer_workshops_2023's Issues

SQL Workshop Jupyter Notebooks

Add instructions on how to setup SQLite on Jupyter Notebooks - good enough proxy to run the commands and work through the workshop people want to use Jupyter

Extra comma on the last sentence in this section and the code block is hidden when it does not need to be

Commas needed

Spelling mistake in example for SQL workshop

The last image under 2.1 has a spelling mistake, which might confuse people when they are trying to do this on their own

Step 19 push issue

Is is timeline.push(task_procedure); in the code block, should be timeline.push(phase1_procedure);

The outline of the answers to the examples aren't showing, need to fix this on the .Rmd and .html
