your data and code for computationally reproducible
publication: A hands-on workshop for researchers</b>, 1:00
-4:00pm in 3-333. Register at: <a
href="http://libcal.mit.edu/event/4053115">http://libcal.mit.edu/event/4053115</a>.
Computational analysis is playing an increasingly central role
in research. Journals, funders, and other researchers are
calling for published research to include associated data and
code. However, many researchers have not received training in
best practices and tools for sharing code and data. This is a
step-by-step, practical workshop to prepare research code and
data for computationally reproducible publication. The workshop
starts with some brief introductory information about
computational reproducibility, but the bulk of the workshop is
guided work with code and data. We cover the basic best
practices for publishing code and data. Participants move
through organizing their files, creating a codebook, preparing
their code for reuse, documentation, and submitting their code
and data to share using Code Ocean. Bring a laptop to fully
participate. Participants may bring their own data and code to
work through during the workshop. Participants should be able to
successfully run the code they bring themselves. If you don't
have code and data of your own to bring, you can follow along
with example code and data. Presented by April Clyburne-Sherin,
CodeOcean. Questions? Contact Phoebe Ayers, EECS Librarian, at <a
