Data Representation
From SC Education
Curriculum Development Workshop at LSU > Brian's Page
The idea of this class is to demonstrate ways of importing, massaging, and exporting data. Perhaps focus on Python, MatLab / Octave, and/or SAS.
Basic I/O
Processing
- Working with ASCII data
- regex
- Working with binary data
- raw binary
- HDF5
- others
- Types of statistical analysis (perhaps not to teach stats, just demonstrate what can be done with some really pretty data)
- Mapping from linear to non-linear scales (how and why)
