Block 1: efficient code writing
- Good code practice, traps to avoid
- Project management/organisation, continuous integration
- Profiling & debugging
Block 2: parallel & GPU programming for Python
- Learn how to accelerate your code to be executed on several CPUs or on GPU cards
- Hands-on sessions to do it with real exercise in physics problematics
Block 3: Python libraries for astronomy & astrophysics
