Pre-Bootcamp Instructions:

Join the bootcamp slack channel #bootcamp2020
Install the bootcamp Virtual Machine
Go Through the computing and python tutorials (if you need a python introduction/refresher)

1. We have created a channel on the IceCube slack for all bootcamp members on #bootcamp2020. Please join the channel to ask any questions, get updates, etc.

2. To install the virtual machine, follow the mac tutorial or windows tutorial. The virtual machine allows us to ensure that all bootcamp attendees are using the same software, which makes our week smoother. It will create a virtual computer running Ubuntu (a Linux operating system). If you already have a Linux machine use the other tutorials as a guide to help your setup. If you run into issues with the virtual machine, email help@icecube.wisc.edu.

The latest version of the bootcamp VM can be found here: https://convey.icecube.wisc.edu/data/user/icecube-bootcamp/bootcamp2019/virtualbox_vm/

NOTE: The current 2020 bootcamp VM seems to have some issues with compiling the requisite icecube software. The link above currently points to last year's VM, which should work for the purposes of this bootcamp.

3. We have created a short introduction to computing and python. If this is your first time coding, we recommend you pass through the tutorial. If this is your first time. To learn more about python you can look for online classes, codecademy has a free class on Python2 here: https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-python. Also, if you have any questions or problems, Google and Stack Exchange can be good resources for solving coding problems. Our own tutorials are linked below:

Introduction to Computing (How does basic hardware and software work? How do I open Jupyter notebook?)
Python Tutorial Part 1 (Command Line Tips and Tricks, Intro to Jupyter Notebook)
Python Tutorial Part 2 (Variables, Types, Arithmetic Operations, Comparison Operations, Control Flow, Loops, Functions)
Python Tutorial Part 3 (Libraries, Writing and Running Python)
Python Tutorial Part 4 (Matplotlib)

If you would like to download the notebooks used to create the tutorials, you can download them here: https://icecube.wisc.edu/~icecube-bootcamp/bootcamp2020/introduction/. To use the notebooks open them using Jupyter Notebook.

Recordings of the 2020 Bootcamp can be found here: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1XW_7VOt9WUdtEp0z0iTfTebLHGeeFl7z
