This hands-on workshop in English is for everyone looking for a free, fast and simple to use database for analysing large amounts of data. Paraphrasing from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckDB):
...DuckDB (https://duckdb.org) is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) originally developed by Mark Raasveldt and Hannes Mühleisen at the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands and first released in 2019.... The project has over 6 million downloads per month... DuckDB is used at Facebook, Google, and Airbnb...
The followings will be covered:
- What is DuckDB?
- Why DuckDB?
- Using DuckDB via the command line interface (CLI)
- Using DuckDB via graphical user interfaces (GUI)
- Using DuckDB via the Structured Query Language (SQL)
- Using DuckDB via the Python programming language
- Comparing DuckDB with Apache Spark/Databricks
- Scaling DuckDB with MotherDuck
- Artificial intelligence (AI) use cases

Een koppeling tussen thema’s uit de geschiedenis en aspecten van computational thinking. Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog werden berichten gecodeerd en gedecodeerd. De kinderen gaan ook aan de slag met het decoderen en coderen van binaire “boodschappen”. Dit moet natuurlijk zeer nauwkeurig gebeuren anders treden er fouten op. Als er fouten insluipen, moeten deze opgespoord en opgelost worden (debuggen). Terwijl kinderen met het coderen en decoderen van de boodschappen bezig zijn, leren zij tegelijk iets over de (plaatselijke) geschiedenis.
Digital Botschafter des Landes Rheinland Pfalz
Mon, Oct 14, 2019 9:30 AM
Digital Botschafter werden in RLP ausgebildet um Seniorinnen und Senioren ans Internet heran zu führen.
Unter dem Motto, "Senioren Tablet statt Senioren Teller"
werden ganz gezielt ältere Mitbürger angesprochen um nicht total abgehängt zu werden.
Auch ich werde in Zukunft solche Interessierte als Referent schulen.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Wolfgang Wobido
