In this repository we collect tutorials and notes from the Code Corners, weekly informal gatherings to share code knowledge and expertise, held at the Institute of Astronomy, University of Cambridge.
Organised by: Marco Tazzari, Matt Auger, Davide Fiacconi.
Here you can view and sign up to the shared Google calendar of Code Corners.
We have a dedicated mailing list where we send out weekly announcements and we discuss questions/requests/suggestions for future corners. We invite the interested people to subscribe by sending an email to ast-code-corner-request@lists.cam.ac.uk with the word "subscribe" in the Subject.
We also have this page in the Issues with a list of suggestions for future code corners.
