ABSTRACT

Computing for Social Scientists is one of a series of introductory computer programming courses designed for specialists, this one for graduate level social science students. A wide spectrum of disciplines was represented including anthropology, sociology, psychology, history, economics, linguistics, and urban planning. The students also had a highly varied background in mathematics---from one college math course through advanced calculus; from strong statistics to no statistical background whatsoever.
