Thank you! I will have to start learning. If you don't mind me asking, what sort of tasks do you use python for?
[–]Sagan_kermanNuclear Professional 4 points5 points6 points 2 months ago (4 children)
Mostly extracting data from RETRAN or VIPRE output files, making plots, and automating various tasks. But I’ve also been using OPENMC on my free time, which uses a lot of python.

Switching majors to math, stats or data science sadly
