| ==Typical templates for Python scripts and C++ programs== | | ==About programming== |
|
| |
|
| It is always rewarding on the long term to start any piece of computer software with a minimum amount of generic code (verbose, command-line options, help message, license, etc). But it's a pain to write all this every time, right? So below are my typical templates for any Python script and C++ programs.
| | * '''Resources''': most of the time, it's not necessary to buy a book, search online instead! |
| | ** [http://software-carpentry.org/ Software Carpentry] to learn about tests, versioning, Makefile, regular expressions, etc |
| | ** [http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide] by Mendel Cooper |
| | ** my own page on [http://openwetware.org/wiki/User:Timothee_Flutre/Notebook/Postdoc/2011/11/07 R] |
| | ** [http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ C++ tutorial], a must-read (and a [http://www.mycplus.com/featured-articles/best-free-programming-courses-online/ list] of the best free C/C++ resources online) |
| | ** Python tutorials: for [http://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/index.htm everyone] ([http://anandology.com/python-practice-book/index.html another]), [http://scipy-lectures.github.io/ scientists] ([http://www.sam.math.ethz.ch/~raoulb/teaching/PythonTutorial/index.html another]), [http://www.jchr.be/python/manuel.htm in French], [https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/index.html packaging], [http://www.labri.fr/perso/nrougier/from-python-to-numpy/ numpy] |
| | ** [http://resrc.io/list/10/list-of-free-programming-books/ list] of free programming books |
|
| |
|
| * '''Python''': it is assumed that the code below is copied into a file named "MyClass.py". | | * '''Regular expressions''': |
| | ** [http://www.regular-expressions.info/quickstart.html quick start] |
| | ** [https://github.com/zeeshanu/learn-regex learn-regex] on GitHub |
| | ** online validators: [http://regexr.com/ regexr.com], [https://regex101.com/ regex101.com] |
|

| #!/usr/bin/env python
| | * '''Templates''': it is always rewarding on the long term to start any piece of computer software with a minimum amount of generic code (command-line options, help message, license, usage of gzipped files, running time, etc). But it's a pain to write all this every time, right? And often we know how to do something in one language but not in another. So below are my typical templates for any C++/Python/R/Bash program, as well as Beamer presentation. |
|
| | ** '''C++''': download the file [http://github.com/timflutre/quantgen/blob/master/myprogram.cpp myprogram.cpp], as well as [http://github.com/timflutre/quantgen/blob/master/utils_io.cpp utils_io.cpp] along with its header [http://github.com/timflutre/quantgen/blob/master/utils_io.hpp utils_io.hpp]. |

| # Aim: does this and that
| | ** '''Bash''': download the file [http://github.com/timflutre/quantgen/blob/master/myprogram.bash myprogram.bash] |
| # help2man -o MyClass.man ./MyClass.py

| | | * '''Language-independent user documentation''': I'm a firm believer that it is necessary to add some user documentation, even minimal, to any program. An easy way to do this is to simply generate such documentation from the "help" message, as long as it is "properly" formatted (see [http://www.gnu.org/s/help2man/ help2man]). The following commands work for any programming language: |
| * '''C++''': it is assumed that the code below is copied into a file named "myprogram.cpp" and that the file "[https://github.com/timflutre/quantgen/blob/master/utils.cpp utils.cpp]" is present in the same directory. | |
