This repository contains teaching materials for Saarland Uni's Working With Corpora program. It's been adapted from the repository for teaching materials and additional resources used by Research Platforms Services at the University of Melbourne to teach Python, IPython, Jupyter and the Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK).
Essentially, the idea of both programs is to run free training in reproducible research methods and tools via a cloud platform, so that nobody has to worry about installation/operating system/specs problems. All code is written and executed within Jupyter Notebooks, allowing easy access to earlier input and output, as well as the rich display of text/images.

All the materials used in the workshops are in this repository. In fact, cloning this repository will be our first activity together as a group. To do that, just open your terminal and type/paste:
git clone git@github.com:wowico/wwc.gitOur lessons are stored as markdown files. The following line of code will let us open markdown files in the Jupyter Notebook.
pip install notedown
printf "c.NotebookApp.contents_manager_class = 'notedown.NotedownContentsManager'\n" >> ~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py
