This is part of the [[http://ag.msri2009.org/|massive 2009 algebraic geometry program at MSRI]].

We now have a [[attachment:sd14.pdf|poster]] (or get the [[attachment:sd14.svg|svg source file]]).



== Schedule ==

=== Tuesday, March 10 ===
|| 9 - 10 am || William Stein: [[http://wstein.org/talks/20090310-msri-sd14/ | Introduction to Sage]] (NOTE: some examples rely on functionality not yet merged into Sage.  Stay tuned!) ||
|| 10:30 - 11:30 || David Eisenbud and Mike Stillman: Doing Algebraic Geometry in Macaulay2 -- an introduction [[attachment:cubicsurface.m2]] and [[attachment:cubicsurface.sws]] ||
|| 1:00 - 2:00pm || Mike Hansen: The Sage/Macaulay2 interface ||
|| 2:30 - 3:30 pm || Alex Ghitza: Algebraic Geometry using Sage [[attachment:main.pdf]], [[attachment:SD14__Algebraic_schemes.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Morphisms_and_points.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Curves.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Elliptic_curves.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Visualisation_1.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Visualisation_2.sws]], [[attachment:SD14__Visualisation_3.sws]] (NOTE: some graphing functionality relies on patches not yet merged into Sage -- so they'll probably not work for you yet.) ||
|| 4:00 - 5:30 pm || Justin Walker et al.:  Interactive Sage Tutorial - Using Sage (bring your laptop!) [[attachment:Tut.pdf | Sage Tutorial,]][[attachment:Resources.pdf | Sage Resources,]][[attachment:stuff.sage| Sage Examples,]][[attachment:ram.sage | RamifiedPrimes function]]||
|| 5:30 - 6:00pm || Project organization -- discussion by people interested in coding||

=== Wednesday, March 11 ===
||9:30 - 10:30 am || Andrey Novoseltsev: Fibered K3 Surfaces using Sage (a.k.a. Lattice Polytopes using Sage) [[attachment:K3viaSage.pdf]], [[attachment:SD14PolytopeDemo.sws]]||
||11:00am - 12:00 pm|| William Stein et al.: discussion about mathematical software -- what do you want? [[/what|Questions]] ||
|| 1:30 - 3:00 pm || Mike Hansen, Michael Abshoff: Interactive Sage Tutorial - Developing for Sage (bring your laptop!)||
|| afternoon/evening || projects and discussion by people interested in coding in Evans Hall||
||  4:10–5:00pm, 740 Evans || William Stein: Number Theory Seminar (not on Sage)||

=== Thursday, March 12 ===
|| 10:30 - 11:30am || Dan Bump: Lie theoretic methods in Sage (see http://sporadic.stanford.edu/bump/sagedays/)||
|| 1:30 - 3:00pm || final coding sprint project wrap-up ||
