Description

This half day workshop will introduce biologists to Project Jupyter (formerly IPython Notebook). We will assume some minimal experience with Python, but people new to IPython Notebook/Project Jupyter are welcome to attend!

Project Jupyter is a literate data analysis environment (similar to knitr and Shiny) that supports over 40 different programming languages, including R and Python both. It can be used to build reproducible analyses for publication, collaborate over distances on data analysis, and build interactive tutorials and homeworks around data analysis.
