Order of HW assignments in 2020

AO 1 (Spring)

1. HW-software_01

   • Installation of softwares, first basic usages of Slack, GitHub, SAO ds9, and python.
   • Sample solution I expect from students.

2. HW-software_02

   • Usage
   • Interactive aperture photometry using SAO ds9

3. python basics

   1. HW-python_01 (not assigned to submit)
      • Real basics
   2. HW-python_02-pathlib (not assigned to submit)
      • Real basics
   3. HW-python_03-pathlib
      • Slightly more

4. python packages

   1. HW-numpy_01 (not assigned to submit)
      • Real basics
   2. HW-numpy_02
      • Slightly more
   3. HW-pandas_01
      • Simple usage of pandas

5. Astronomical data

   1. HW-astropy_01-fits
   • First usage of astropy.io.fits and WCS.
   2. HW-preproc_01_mkmaster
      • Making master calibration frames (bias/dark/flats).
      • Simple analysis of master calibration frames from SAO ds9
   3. HW-preproc_02_BDFC.md
      • Pre-processing of the science images from master calibration frames.

6. HW-phot_01_apphot

   • Professional-level aperture photometry of 2005 UD data from SNU observatory (2018 Oct).
   • Undergraduate-level scientific analysis questions

7. HW-obsphot_01

   • An assignment to ask students to prepare for observational plan.
   • We couldn't proceed any real observation due to the COVID-19.
   • After giving feedbacks to students fro prof. and TA, students are asked to re-submit the answer sheet again within ~ 1-2 weeks.

There were mid-term and final exams. Normally we only have mid-term; final is replaced with students' group reports. This time, however, we couldn't conduct any students-led observations, so the final exam is introduced.

Notebooks for numpy, pandas, and astropy may not be helpful for this homework, but it will be helpful for the next ones.
More basic exercises here (no need to submit answer sheet for these; 이건 제출하는 거 아닙니다! 참고하라고 둔 연습용 문제입니다):
(1) Basic python - https://github.com/ysBach/SNU_AOclass/blob/master/Assignments/HW-python_01.md
(2) Basic pathlib - https://github.com/ysBach/SNU_AOclass/blob/master/Assignments/HW-python_02-pathlib.md
You have 15+ days till the submission due.
Please take your time for self study!!!
