CSC Workshop: Beyond the Search Box: A Hands-On Look at Regex, Fuzzy Matching, and More
Join us behind the scenes to meet some of the methods behind search. CUL librarian Dan Woulfin returns to the CSC to show you some ways that computers can find patterns, spot words despite typos, and make 'sense' of texts. We'll play in sandboxes like regex101.com and Google Colab, experiment with real-world platforms like GitHub and Semantic Scholar, and talk through what these tools can and cannot do.
This workshop is designed to benefit you no matter where you are on your computational journey. All majors and experience levels are welcome.
This workshop is planned to take place in-person only (Milstein 516)
We look forward to seeing you there!
