We’re starting a new Daily Study Group for new users of Wolfram Language! If you’d like to learn to program in Wolfram Language with a combination of short lessons, poll questions to review key concepts, practice problems and Q&A, this is the group for you! We’ll be working through the Elementary Introduction to Wolfram Language book by Stephen Wolfram with lots of interactive examples.
A certificate of program completion will be awarded to participants who attend online sessions and pass quizzes.
A list of daily topics can be found on the Daily Study Groups page. The study group sessions include videos and reading materials for the course and time for discussion and Q&A.
About This Study Group: Learn the Wolfram Language and modern computational thinking from Stephen Wolfram’s book with veteran Wolfram Language instructor and developer David Withoff and Wolfram instructional designer and technologist Rory Foulger. No prior programming knowledge is required.
Sessions include short lessons, poll questions to review key concepts, practice problems and Q&A. A certificate of program completion will be awarded to participants who attend online sessions and pass quizzes.
Study Group sessions run daily, Monday through Friday. This Study Group begins Monday, March 21, 2022.
Thank you to all who have been participating in the study group so far. As noted by Rory in today’s session, Lesson 10 of the course is your homework for the evening:
Is anyone else having a problem going to the link for Quiz 1?. See attachment for the returned error. I get this error using both Chrome and Safari browsers. I get the same error when I try to open “An Elementary Introduction to the Wolfram Language”.
Why does an association with 2 rules behave differently than an association with one rule in this example:
In[98]:= {Reverse[<|a → {2, 3}, b → {4, 5}|>, {2}], Reverse[<|a → {2, 3}|>, {2}]}
Is there a better way to turn a list of associations into a single association than is illustrated in the following example? ((In Mathematica, the Entity[…] entries are the usual icons, which are more readable.)
