About the Course:
In this course you will be introduced to programming in IDL. No prior experience is required and we will teach you the basic skill set required for programming in the Astronomy labs. This class is not restricted to Astronomy majors, but it will foreshadow programs you'll need if you decide to take the Astronomy lab(s).
We must emphasize: there is no prior experience required and this class is open to ALL majors! If you'd like to learn about basic programming and or want some astro-related programming sign up!
We have weekly homework assignments which will emphasize basic programming skills and one final project which will take slightly more time than one weekly assignment.
The course syllabus will be posted soon, but in the mean time email any questions you have to justinhiggins@berkeley.edu
