Notes:
- There will be an online test on the final day to evaluate your proficiency with Scilab. This test is compulsory. You may use Scilab and its help files for answering questions. You may not discuss the questions with other participants.
- The participation certificate will only be given to participants who contribute during the sprint sessions and are able to pass the test. If you are not able to clear the test, you must demonstrate to us that you have obtained proficiency in Scilab before being given the certificate. A letter of participation will be given to all participants.
- If you can bring your own laptop, please do so. Install Scilab from http://www.scilab.org/products/scilab/download
- If you have never used Scilab or MATLAB before, you may familiarize yourself with the Scilab syntax from http://spoken-tutorial.org/node/169
Sprint Sessions
As part of the Scilab workshop, you will implement examples and problems from a textbook of your choice into Scilab during the Sprint sessions. Please view the list of suggested textbooks spreadsheet below and use the form to suggest 3 popular/standard/classic textbooks in order of your preference that you would like to use for the workshop.
We would prefer that you suggest textbooks that have an Indian edition available. Selecting a textbook that has already been suggested is both desired and encouraged. We are looking for textbooks that typically already have examples and problems implemented in languages such as MATLAB or Octave. We will revert to you with the final textbook that you are to use.
Please fill the form before Sunday, 12 September, 2010.
