Wolfram Notebooks: Creating Interactive Documents for Computation

October 6, 9am–11:30am Central Daylight Time

$100 Standard | $50 Discounted

Wolfram Notebooks offer the preeminent environment for technical workflows. Join this course and get up to speed with the latest features and functionality for computation and programming with Wolfram Notebooks. In addition to building organized documents with customized formatting and layouts, you will learn about topics like incorporating easy-to-author interactive elements, using built-in connectivity to external services, leveraging natural language understanding and high-level data integration within the notebook interface itself.

Numerics Refresher: Overview, Tips and Methods

October 6, 9am–11:30am Central Daylight Time

$100 Standard | $50 Discounted

Develop a deeper understanding of a wide range of numerical functionality in the Wolfram Language, including precision frameworks, numerical integration, differential equations and others. Core examples as well as tips and tricks for efficient computation will be discussed. The relationships of the numerical functions with their corresponding symbolic counterparts will be examined and explained.

Deploying Reports and Results with Wolfram Notebooks

October 6, 1–3:30pm Central Daylight Time

$100 Standard | $50 Discounted

Learn about the workflow for publishing Wolfram Notebooks to the web so that anyone anywhere can both read and interact with them. Explore the different options available for sharing notebooks on the Wolfram Cloud so that they can be viewed, edited, copied and downloaded on a variety of platforms. You will also learn to build and deploy interactive reports and generate live dashboards. Topics will include deploying notebook content to the cloud, visualizing analysis results in a cloud notebook, controlling user permissions, deploying webforms and storing data using cloud objects.

Advanced Numerical Computing with the Wolfram Language

October 6, 1–3:30pm Central Daylight Time

$100 Standard | $50 Discounted

This course focuses on techniques for solving ordinary differential equations, differential-algebraic equations and partial differential equations using the Wolfram Language. Learn all about the built-in Wolfram Language function NDSolve, a general numerical differential equation solver, as well as some symbolic and asymptotic techniques.
