[This is an informational posting about a course starting Monday (next week) at the Homewood Campus of Johns Hopkins University.] Current Topics in Information Technology: Summer '92 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Homewood Academic Computing of the Johns Hopkins University, in cooperation with the JHU Whiting School of Engineering, offers each semester a series of non-credit courses focusing on current topics in computing. The subject of the final course in our series this summer is the multi-functional statistical programming environment known as S. Continuing Education Units may be awarded upon completion. This course is hands-on, and space is very limited. A registration form for the course is attached. For assistance, please contact Rodney Baker in Homewood Academic Computing at 516-8096 (FAX 516-5508). For information about other HAC courses, please call Lee Watkins, HAC Assistant Director. The S Statistical Programming Environment Paul M. Wright ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Indigo Workstation Lab, Krieger Hall 172-A This course presents data analysis and graphics using the new S language from Bell Labs, a powerful interactive programming environment for UNIX systems. Students will learn how S handles data, how to use the large collection of S functions to perform statistical analyses, and how to display information with the flexible graphics capabilities of S. Students will also learn how to expand S by writing S functions, as well as how to use the interface to UNIX system commands (one of the most useful aspects of any good UNIX tool). A working knowledge of statistical procedures and linear algebra operations is required for this course. -----------------------------------CUT HERE------------------------------------ Summer '92 Registration Form for Homewood Computing Courses Name: ____________________________________________________________________ Title: ____________________________________________________________________ SSN: ___________________________________________ Address: ____________________________________________________________________ Phone# day: ______________________ night: ______________________ E-Mail Address: __________________________________________________ ___ S Stat.
