Kick-start JuliaCon 2024 with this half-day workshop to pick up the language. Discover what makes Julia special and start writing your own code right away. No prior Julia experience is necessary; this workshop is geared towards anyone with basic programming knowledge from another language.
The goal of this workshop is to provide you with a broad overview of the language and establish a foundation for the rest of the week. We will cover Julia's syntax and data structures as well as its marquee features, including multiple dispatch, its type system, and a few common packages.
Dr. Matt Bauman is the Director of Sales Engineering at JuliaHub Inc. and has been working with the Julia language for over a decade. He holds a PhD in BioEngineering from the University of Pittsburgh.
