Online training workshop: "Awk Workshop", Uppsala, 28 and 31 August, 2020

This workshop aims to promote the awk tool for use in everyday research work and urges you to find solutions yourself rather than expecting ready-made ones.

Thus, the material given during the seminar will not be a complete guide or manual.

The purpose of the workshop is to give an overview of the capabilities of the awk language and to underline some of its particular strengths as well as its disadvantages.

When: Friday August 28 and Monday August 31, 2020.

Where: online.
