Below is what I just put on the blog -- the noteworthy new item is that we
now have a limited number of discounts for academics and students. The URL

Reminder: One week til Rcpp class in San Francisco
Just a quick note to remind everyone that the Rcpp
class in San Francisco, which I am holding
together with Revolution Analytics, will take
place a week from today.
We are happy to report that the number of
registrations has met our initial targets. But as
a number of open slots remain, we have decided to
offer a few places at discounts of 25% for
academics (with code acad1) and 50% for students
(with code student). Course details are at the
Revolution course page, registration is at the
Eventbrite page.
And just for completeness, here is what I wrote in
the previous announcement:
The format will follow the workshop Romain and I
gave during the tutorial day preceding this
year's R/Finance conference. The style will once
again be hands-on, with copious concrete
examples and solid coverage of most aspects of
Rcpp and related packages such as RInside,
RcppArmadillo and others. The eight-hour
schedule contains about six hours of
instruction, split into four sessions of around
ninety minutes. This leaves ample time for both
lunch and coffee breaks, and for informal
discussions and Q+A.
The one-day class will be offered in San
Franciso on Saturday, October 8, 2011. Please
see the official course page for more details,
concrete location info and maps as well as
registration details.
Feel free to contact me at the usual email address
with questions. Or with suggestions for the
after-party in San Francisco :)
Cheers, Dirk
