Advanced Scientific Computing: producing better code

This course is taught as a 6-session "nanocourse" at Washington University in St. Louis. See the course summary for a general introduction.

Anyone following this should start with the setup instructions. Next, lectures (videos and presentation materials) and homeworks are linked in the schedule. Most of the learning will occur via the reading and homeworks; do not expect to get much out of this course if you don't do them.

All course videos will be hosted in my YouTube account in a dedicated playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-G47MxHVTewUm5ywggLvmbUCNOD2RbKA

Explain the difference between reference and value

This is a common gotcha. It seems worth explaining early.

@Junxiao-Hou, does this help address the problem you encountered? Because it seems possible to get surprised by this at any point, I thought maybe the best strategy is to explain it at a fairly early stage. But I'm open to suggestions about better approaches.
