I am looking for some advice. There has been ongoing interest in a Data Carpentry workshop at NEON (where i work for those of you who don't know me). :)<br>
<br>
The challenge that I see at this point, is figuring out what content would be most relevant. I posted a survey today and already have a handful of responses - all interested in a 2 day workshop.<br>
<br>
However there is a mix of interest in Python vs R. And some mix of background (mostly intermediate focused however).<br>
<br>
I am giving everyone a week to respond to the survey. Then I need to figure out an approach. Depending upon the volume of responses, i am even thinking about something that is split across days (R one day, python another). Git and shell combined? OR SQL ? Can anyone help guide me through the logistics of deciding the best approach for this workshop once the survey results are in?<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance!!<br>
