Students are encouraged to work in groups, but turn in assignments individually, listing the group members they worked with.

Submission instructions: email both a PDF of your solutions as well as your code (.m or .py files) as attachments to:

   rctn.org vs265 (vs265 should be out front)

You can hand in a paper copy of your solutions before class, but you still have to email your code to the address above before the assignment is due.

Resources

Matlab

Amir, the past GSI for the course says "There is a guide to Matlab on the web by Kevin Murphy which is really excellent. I think it would be great for the VS265 students: http://code.google.com/p/yagtom/"

Python

Fernando Perez at the Brain Imaging Center has an excellent set of resources on Python for scientific computing. You will likely find the "Starter Kit" particularly useful.
