For the longest time I've wanted to write a blog post about things computational scientists should know about software development but there's too many, each one requires too much explanation, and it's just generally too overwhelming.

Instead I'm gonna skeet them out into the void occasionally:

This is a great thread. One thing I tell my young collaborators is:

Before optimizing any code make sure you benchmark it to make sure you are optimizing a bottleneck and not some insignificant piece. And that your optimizations actually make your code faster.

Perfect thank you! I enjoy it. It is a great intersection between physics and computer science.

Hi. I’m a particle physicist. I focus on research pertaining to simulating theory calculations through Monte-Carlo methods for both the LHC and neutrino experiments.
