Welcome to the Geosciences Modeling and Data Science Wiki.  
+
This Wiki is meant to provide a resource for those at UiO interested in working with computer modeling and data analysis in Earth Sciences.
  
== Purpose: ==
+
Content herein is generally specific to UiO, as otherwise it is recommended to make posts to [http://stackexchange.com/sites Stack Exchange] and the sites therein.
  
<span style="font-size:small;">Provide information on software tools available for data analysis and scientific program for projects within the field of Geosciences&nbsp;''in general''&nbsp;and to provide users a cenral resource for keeping notes on '''UIO specific''' aspects of running various software routines.&nbsp;Ideally, this site will become overtime a 'go to' location where incoming students who will be working with modeling and heavy data analysis on servers can find tips for getting started.</span>
+
This wiki uses 'category' tags, and below are some of the categories available. Note that in some cases, the content does not yet exist, in which case you are encouraged to edit and add information, or [https://wiki.uio.no/mn/geo/geoit/index.php/Maintainers contact one of the site maintainers] to request further information.

<span style="font-size:small;">Processing large datasets and running models for geosciences will likely require that you work on the command line of a server and not on your laptop. It's important to learn how to do this efficiently so that you don't feel that it restricts where you can work from. In fact, it's generally the opposite. Once you learn how to use a server well, you will find it much easier to work from anywhere! All you need is an internet connection.</span>

A good starting place for markup reference can be found here: [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext_examples http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext_examples]
 
 
 
Another point is that this wiki is using Subpages, so in places you'll see reference to a <nowiki><subpages .></nowiki> tag. This just means that the list of subpages will be dynamically generated in that location.
 
 
 
==== Editing Source Code ====
 
 
 
Note that for the purposes of documenting source code there are two important features:
 
 
 
#use the <nowiki><code> ... </code></nowiki> to show some simple code snippets: <code>def foo(): return</code>
 
#The syntax highlighting extension has been installed, so you can wrap source code examples in <nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki> tags. This is helpful for documenting a code example and supports many languages. Usage is simple. Here's an example of how to display some 'Hello World' source code examples:
 
<pre><syntaxhighlight lang='python'>
 
# Hello World in Python
 
print("Hello World")
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
<syntaxhighlight lang='csharp'>
 
//Hello World in C#
 
class HelloWorld
 
{
 
    static void Main()
 
    {
 
        System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
 
    }
 
}
 
 
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
 
 
<syntaxhighlight lang='cpp'>
 
// Hello World in C++ (pre-ISO)
 
 
 
#include <iostream.h>
 
 
 
main()
 
{
 
    cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
 
    return 0;
 
}
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
</syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
</pre>
 
The above code block results in:
 
<div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr"><div class="python source-python"><pre class="de1"><span class="co1"># Hello World in Python</span>
 
<span class="kw1">print</span><span class="br0">(</span><span class="st0">"Hello World"</span><span class="br0">)</span></pre></div></div><div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr"><div class="csharp source-csharp"><pre class="de1"><span class="co1">//Hello World in C#</span>
 
</pre>
 
&lt;span class="kw4"&gt;class&lt;/span&gt; HelloWorld &lt;span class="br0"&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
 
 
 
    <span class="kw1">static</span> <span class="kw4">void</span> Main<span class="br0">(</span><span class="br0">)</span>
 
<span class="br0">{</span>
 
<span class="kw5">System</span><span class="sy0">.</span><span class="me1">Console</span><span class="sy0">.</span><span class="me1">WriteLine</span><span class="br0">(</span><span class="st0">"Hello, World!"</span><span class="br0">)</span><span class="sy0">;</span>
 
<span class="br0">}</span>
 
 
 
&lt;span class="br0"&gt;}&lt;/span&gt; &nbsp; C&lt;span class="sy0"&gt;++&lt;/span&gt;
 
Back to index</div></div><div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr"><div class="cpp source-cpp"><pre class="de1"><span class="co1">// Hello World in C++ (pre-ISO)</span>
 
</pre>
 
&nbsp; &lt;span class="co2"&gt;#include &lt;iostream.h&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &nbsp; main&lt;span class="br0"&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="br0"&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="br0"&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;

This Wiki is meant to provide a resource for those at UiO interested in working with computer modeling and data analysis in Earth Sciences.

Content herein is generally specific to UiO, as otherwise it is recommended to make posts to Stack Exchange and the sites therein.

This wiki uses 'category' tags, and below are some of the categories available. Note that in some cases, the content does not yet exist, in which case you are encouraged to edit and add information, or contact one of the site maintainers to request further information.

Purpose:

Provide information on software tools available for data analysis and scientific program for projects within the field of Geosciences in general and to provide users a cenral resource for keeping notes on UIO specific aspects of running various software routines. Ideally, this site will become overtime a 'go to' location where incoming students who will be working with modeling and heavy data analysis on servers can find tips for getting started.

Enjoy!
