Online summer sessions PROGRAMMING IN ASTRONOMY specifically prepared for Lyceum students.
These four sessions are designed to develop skills of usage programming languages.
The educational tasks were chosen in such way, that from one session to the next they help to express ideas in mind into codes and visualization of models.
During the sessions different techniques and culture of programming are constantly under consideration.
