If you are new here, you may want to start out by reading the [[PrattWiki:Introduction|Pratt Wiki Introduction]].  If you are coming to Duke in Fall of 2024, you may also want to read [[Recommended Hardware]].\n\n<!-- Slows down?\nWe currently have [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] mainspace articles along with several policy and special pages for a total of [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFPAGES}}]] pages. You will join the {{NUMBEROFUSERS}} users who have already registered on the site!\n-->\n \n\n== NEWSFLASHES and ODDITIES==\nGiven that [[Python]] is free, [[MATLAB]] is available for free to Duke students, and programs like [[Maple]] are relatively cheap, students who have their own computer may want to look at [[How To Get Work Done]].  The page will have links for how to get your Duke drive mounted to your own machine and then do work on your own machine rather than sending programs over the internet.\nItems of an urgent / transient nature are now on the [[Newsflashes]] page.  \n\n== Purpose ==\nThis wiki is specifically devoted to asking and answering questions Pratt students may have about computational methods, [[MATLAB]], [[LaTeX]], and other software or hardware tools typically used in engineering classes.  As a start, there is an [[EGR 103 Startup]] page for people new to Pratt and in EGR 103 and there is a [[Welcome Back]] page for people who need some reminders about how things work or where they are.\n\nWe will also include Pratt-specific information about [[Student Groups]], [[Recommended Hardware]], and things of that nature.  Finally, some classes will use pages on the wiki as reference material - these classes will show up as categories on the bottom of relevant pages, and the pages will be collected in a category page, such as the one at [[:Category:EGR 103]].  \n\n<!--Note, however, that this is ''not'' a general Duke wiki - for that, please see the [http://www.dukewiki.com Duke Wiki], hosted by [http://www.dukewiki.com/wiki/User:DuikiSysop Andrew Tutt].-->\n<br /clearall>\n\n<center>\n{| border=\"0\"\n|+''' '''\n|-\n| valign=\"top\"|\n[[File:CIEMASEntrance JPG Small.jpg|300 px|thumb|Front entrance to Fitzpatrick Center<ref name=\"WM1\">[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikimedia Commons], by [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Bluedog423 Bluedog423]</ref>]]\n| valign=\"top\"|\n[[File:HudsonEntrance JPG Small.jpg|300 px|thumb|Front entrance to Hudson Hall<ref name=\"WM1\"/>]]\n| valign=\"top\"|\n[[File:TeerEntrance JPG Small.jpg|300 px|thumb|Front entrance to Teer Building<ref name=\"WM1\" />]]\n|}\n</center>\n\n<br /clearall>\n\n<!-- Probably not necessary\n== What's New? ==\n=== {{CURRENTMONTH}}/{{CURRENTDAY2}}/{{CURRENTYEAR}} New Pages and Edits ===\nThe last five edits and last five new pages are:\n{{Recent and New}}\n -->\n\n[[File:VinikEntrance JPG Small.jpg|300 px|thumb|Top entrance to Vinik Building<ref name=\"WM2\">[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikimedia Commons], by [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Specious Specious]</ref>]]\n== Getting Help Working With Wikia ==\nThis wiki uses [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki], the same program used by [[wikipedia:|Wikipedia]].  If you are familiar with that program, you are pretty much good to go here.  If not, the [[wikipedia:wikipedia:tutorial|Wikipedia Tutorial]] should come in very handy, especially the parts on [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Tutorial_%28Editing%29|editing]], [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Tutorial_%28Formatting%29|formatting]], and [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Tutorial_%28Talk_pages%29|talk pages]]. [http://meta.wikimedia.org/ Wikimedia] also has a list of help pages [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents#For_editors for editors].\n\n== Asking Questions ==\nPost your questions by editing the discussion page of an article - just click on the '''discussion''' tab at the start of the article. Edit the page, then scroll to the bottom and add a question by putting in the characters <nowiki>{{Q}}</nowiki>, followed by your question and finally your signature (with four tildes, i.e. <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). Using the <nowiki>{{Q}}</nowiki> will automatically put the page in the category of pages with questions - you can see this page at [[:Category:Questions]].  Other editors hoping to help out can then go to that category page to see where the questions are. See the page for the [[Template:Q|Q Template]] for details and examples. \n\nFor general questions, go to the [[General Questions]] page.  You should still use the <nowiki>{{Q}}</nowiki> template as well as your signature.\n\n== What Can You Do? == \nAt present, there are three places to check out areas identified as needing help.  One is the [[PrattWiki:To Do|To Do list]], which will be a running update of wiki-centric tasks such as which templates and categories have been added.  Another is the [[PrattWiki:Projects|Projects]] page, where people can either request additions to the site or look to see possible new pages to create.  With respect to the latter, the [[Special:Wantedpages|Wanted Pages]] page will automatically list any dead-end links that need pages.  \n\nFinally, people can use the [[Template:Q|Q Template]] on talk pages to place the page on a category page called [[:Category:Questions]] - go there and you will see pages with as-yet open questions.  If you answer a question, please consider using the [[Template:A|A Template]] to let folks know you have answered a question.\n\n[[Image:IP Duke FCIEMAS int horiz third floor atrium new hi res 20.sized.jpg|left|300 px|thumb|Third floor of the Atrium in the Fitzpatrick Center<ref name=\"DUP\"/>]]\n== What Can We Do? ==\nThe [[PrattWiki:Community Portal|Community Portal]] is a good place to discuss the future of this site.  As an example, the first discussion in the portal concerns how best to organize \"frequently asked questions\" - feel free to jump into that conversation or start a new one!\n\n== Contacts ==\nThis site is primarily a project of [http://fds.duke.edu/db/pratt/ECE/faculty/mrg Dr. Michael Gustafson] (whose typical screen name is [[User:DukeEgr93|DukeEgr93]]).  If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, you can contact him via e-mail at mrg(at)duke(dot)edu or by leaving a message on DukeEgr93's [[User_talk:DukeEgr93|talk page]].\n<br clear=all>\n\n== References ==\n<references/>"
