Live Coding Buddy

Fostering a Coding Community

Mission:

Provide students across campus with real-time coding support and to enhance the experience of coding among students.

Where? CEAS Library Classroom - Baldwin 850D

What? Stop by the CEAS Library coding support. All are welcome! Coding can be an isolating activity, but we are here to help make coding friendly. Get connected to your peers, hear from student groups, find your coding buddy, and get live support from experienced coders on the library workshop team.

Start with a keyword search, then refine by subject or other facets later. 

Building a search query:

• Create a search set of synonyms (use "OR" operator) for a concept
• Combine search sets for concepts with "AND" operator
• use quote marks " " to identify a phrase
• Use truncation and wild cards to expand based on a word stem (e.g., nano* )

Narrow your results:

• Examine search result record to see what subjects have been assigned (if any) to the record. Subjects can be combined with keywords to focus search, or searched individually to find items that are primarily about the topic.
• Use refine or limit features such as date, material type (e.g., review article), treatment (in Compendex - theoretical, applied, etc).

Citation searching

• Expand to related articles with shared citations (Scopus)
• Use citation searching and browsing features, including sorting by # of times cited (Scopus, SciFinder, Google Scholar, etc)
