Software Development Topics for NCN

Computational Resources

Computational resources are the hardware utilities available to NCN students to complete their computational tasks.

Computer Languages

In order to express your computational tasks to the machines, computer languages such as C, C++, Python are needed. Tips and notes on these languages are discussed here

Oliphant and Jones on python: http://nanohub.org/resources/99

Matlab DOs and DON’Ts Nikonov: http://nanohub.org/resources/1279

Software Development

Successful and powerful softwares usually grow large, complex, and requires collaborations among a team of developers. Experts here offer tips on how to develop and maintain them properly
