# Autumn 2025

- **6-8 October**
- R: Mon 6 Oktober
- MATLAB: Tue 7 Oktober
- Julia: Wed 8 Oktober
- Advanced: Fri 10 Oct

## Next meeting 3 Oct 11.00

### Goals

- Know about learners
- Settle advanced day
- Needs of the other days

### Status
- Zoom link sent out (decided in chat)
- Registered 12 (?)
- language-wise
- 11 R; 5 matlab; 4 Julia
- cluster-wise
- all but C3SE

### General

- Extra material will be shown in the **extra** section of menu. Where tho have **files
- In ``extra/`` directory
- [Decided] In ``<language>/``: LS BC BB

- Have we found solution for syntax highlightning? [#238](https://github.com/UPPMAX/R-matlab-julia-HPC/issues/238)

- Images problems
- esp. on-demand
- direct urls may be solution and BB looks into it if time
- trial and error with paths
- or move to `docs/img` & `<root>/img`

- Please check your pages for missed rst2md links.

- Encourage UPPMAX users to Pelle. Only rackham if they want to finish something very soon and need some ideas.

### Advanced day

- Distributed
- who teaches (Björn)
- GPU OK? ()
- julia is missing (Pedro)
- ML and where to put matlab&julia
- together NO
- focus on R & extra material for julia and matlab
- make a matlab (extra)
- some intro (see how far we come) BC
- links to mathworks materials
- Julia BC make a page
- Timings [# 225 schedule](https://github.com/UPPMAX/R-matlab-julia-HPC/issues/225)

### Needs

#### R

- all done?
- Pelle there? #228
- BC has updated this morning some sections

- Problem: interactive is missing the R day
- solution: extend R session 30 min extra by RP
- change schedule: RP
- start from [existing page](https://uppmax.github.io/R-matlab-julia-HPC/r/interactive/)

#### Matlab

- all done?
- pelle #229
- schedule
- Summary by Rebecca

#### Julia

- Interactive session
- Björn rewrites and includes
- Check Pelle #230
- schedule #227
- OK?
- Björn takes summary
- evaluation page needed BC

- [Poll/vote: Zoom room URL on HPC clusters?](https://github.com/UPPMAX/R-matlab-julia-HPC/issues/231):

Decided in chat, not to do this.

Currently in this course, we have a login session each day, because we cannot be sure the learners can actually login.

An alternative would be to put the link to the Zoom room on our HPC clusters.
Me and Björn have done so in another course.
How ruthless this may sounds, there was little mention on this requirement in
[the evaluation](https://uppmax.github.io/naiss_file_transfer_course/evaluations/20250905/)
(sure, there is selection for the people that accept this ruthlessness).

How do we feel about putting the Zoom URL for this course on our HPC clusters?

In that way, we can be (more) sure the learners can actually login. Also, we'll have 1 extra hour of teaching :-)

- Voting option 1: (current setup) Email Zoom room to all learners and have a daily login session:
- Voting option 2: Put Zoom rooms on HPC clusters: RB
