Oct. 6, 2022 update: Originally there was a single course called, "2022-2023 Introduction to Advanced Research Computing (ARC). Each topic/module in the original course has been moved to be in their own course rather than being a section in one large course. This course is one of those courses. (Information has been preserved concerning enrolment and attendance.) To see a listing of all courses see the course listing in the 2022-2023 Courses category.
