Dear bfys friends,
The mail below in dutch states that there are still a number of places
available in the (very good) C++ course of Wouter. This message is
primarily aimed at PhD students. If you think that you might profit from
the course, and it is a worthwile investement of your time, please consider
it.
Cheers,

Hoi Marcel
Ik geef over een paar weken een C++ cursus voor AIOs (zoals je al weet)
Vanuit LHCb hebben zich gemeld
Suvayu Ali ali.suvayu(a)nikhef.nl B-Physics
Pieter David pdavid(a)nikhef.nl B-Physics
Daan van Eijk dveijk(a)nikhef.nl B-Physics
Chiara Farinelli farinel(a)nikhef.nl B-Physics
Panagiotis Tsopelas ptsopel(a)nikhef.nl B-Physics
Er is nog een aantal plaatsen beschikbaar in de cursus, dus als er andere
AIOs in de LHCb groep zijn, waarvan je denkt dat het nuttig is om ze deze
cursus te laten volgen, dan is het nog mogelijk deze op te geven.
Laat deze studenten dan contact met Joan opnemen voor het einde van deze
week
(Let wel dat van studenten die meedoen wordt verwacht dat ze in principe de
gehele cursus volgen - de cursus is intensief en de praktijk leert dat het
overslaan van meerdere modules al vrij snel tot afhaken leidt)
Groeten, Wouter

followed by 3 hours of hands-on training with pedagogical coding exercises
that will familiarize you with the subject. All day assistence is available
to help you work on your coding exercises efficiently, and to answer any
(general) C++ programming questions that may arise.
*** As knowledge of C++ is nowadays essential for all (experimental) HEP
students, ***
*** this course is strongly recommended to all 1st and 2nd year PhD
students. ***
PhD students in later years that are interested in following this course
are also welcome. [ If you have already taken the UvA C++ course as master
student,
there is no need to take this one. ]
