- The learner will be able to explain the purpose of version control
- The learner will be able to set up Git, create a repository, checkout branches, and commit changes
MATLAB Learning Objectives
- The learner will be able to access MATLAB, search documentation, and find help
- The learner will be able to assign variables and perform basic mathematical operations
- The learner will be able to write basic functions
- The learner will be able to create basic plots
Due to the short workshop duration, some introductory MATLAB material will be provided for independent learning after the workshop (e.g., control flow, string formatting, data fitting).
