Love Data Week Special: „Workshop on Computational Reproducibility“ with Mark Ellison (Institute for Linguistics)
This workshop will introduce the participants to the use of Docker, a software that defines a virtual machine container. When you create software that runs inside a container, on that virtual machine (e.g. R or PYTHON code with various packages) it will then run onany computer that can run the Docker software.
