TUTORIAL IN PROGRAMMING FOR LINGUISTS

From Andrew Pedelty, Linguistics major:

If you’ve ever looked at a large set of data, a computationally complex problem, or a frustratingly useless corpus of text, “Man, I should get in on that programming stuff,” then this is your chance. I’ll be offering a tutorial of sorts in (at least) 3 parts over the coming weeks. We’ll start from scratch and end up in a place where students will be competent in their basics and confident in their ability to continue to grow as programmers. If this sounds interesting, send an email to Andrew Pedelty (apedelty@ucsc.edu) for more information or just show up at the LCR (Stevenson 249) at 4pm on this coming Monday, the 14th. Interested parties are strongly encouraged to check the hastily constructed website linked here for more information.
