  • Clarification Q3 Task-1

    Posted by Ashesh Mahidadia Friday 19 August 2022, 02:37:09 PM.

    In Task-1 of Question 3, " sea ice extent " refers to " sum of sea ice extent ". So you need to calculate sum of sea ice extent for the first six months, and similarly for the last six months to make up the half yearly sea ice extents. Hope this clarifies.

    Posted by Ashesh Mahidadia Thursday 16 June 2022, 08:39:12 PM.

    I hope you're having fun with the course and, more importantly, gaining some valuable skills! Thus far, we've covered the fundamentals of Python procedural programming and will progressively expand our coverage to include a few very exciting topics. Please continue to engage actively in labs and lectures, as well as on the forum; the most effective method to learn is to take on a task and give it your all; we are here to support you if you run into any difficulties:-) Kindly post a message on the forum and/or ask your tutor.

    The first assignment is now available (see Assignment-1 in the left panel). In today's lecture (Thursday 16 June) we introduced the assignment. In case you missed the lecture, please watch the recording. During Monday's (5-6pm Monday 20 June) "Live coding session," Danyon will also discuss the assignment's context and how to get started. Please try to attend live if feasible. If you are unable to attend, the session will be recorded.

  • Welcome to ENGG1811 (Computing for Engineers)!

    Posted by Ashesh Mahidadia Wednesday 25 May 2022, 11:58:19 AM.

    Dear ENGG1811 Students,

    Welcome to ENGG1811 (Term 2, 2022), I’m the convenor for the course. There are a number of important points that I’d like to let you know.

    • ENGG1811 does not use Moodle. The course website is at https://webcms3.cse.unsw.edu.au/ENGG1811/22T2 . We recommend that you bookmark the page.
      .
    • The course outline is available on the course website.
      .
    • Please note that labs start in Week 01 . Week-01 introductory lab is now available, see "Labs" in the left panel on the class web page . We will use Blackboard Collaborate and Microsoft Teams for your lab work. The first lab will be on Blackboard Collaborate (follow instructions on this page: Online Lectures and Labs ), except for the f2f (face-to-face) lab classes. Students and tutors of the f2f (face-to-face) labs attend in person in the computer labs on the campus.
      .
    • You will be learning to write computer programs in the Python programming language in ENGG1811. We suggest that you install the software " Anaconda for Python 3.7 (or higher) " on your laptop before the first lecture. Instructions for installing this software can be found at the "Getting Started" link on the course website or http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~en1811/resources/getting-started/index.html

    Looking forward to the start of Term 2, 2022!

    Cheers
    Dr Ashesh Mahidadia
