Research Software Engineering with PythonBuilding software that makes research possible\nAuthor(s): Damien Irving, Kate Hertweck, Luke Johnston, Joel Ostblom, Charlotte Wickham, Greg Wilson\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Chapman & Hall/CRC\nISBN-13: 9780367698324, 978-0367698324\nSynopsis\nWriting and running software is now as much a part of science as telescopes and test tubes, but most researchers are never taught how to do either well. As a result, it takes them longer to accomplish simple tasks than it should, and it is harder for them to share their work with others than it needs to be.\n\nThis book introduces the concepts, tools, and skills that researchers need to get more done in less time and with less pain. Based on the practical experiences of its authors, who collectively have spent several decades teaching software skills to scientists, it covers everything graduate-level researchers need to automate their workflows.
