Tip for developers: This course goes together well with our Python introduction course, and we have scheduled them in the same week.

The course is open to all students and employees of Uni Bonn free of charge. Basic experience with the Linux console is recommended (see our Linux tutorial). Bender access is not necessary.

The course will be held at least twice. Additional course dates may be scheduled depending on the number of registrations.

Registration happens via eCampus. Simply join this course like any other eCampus course.

IMPORTANT: You must join one of the groups to attend!
