Updating the HLT lessons #20

Open alexpearce opened 8 years ago

alexpearce commented 8 years ago

This is mostly for @roelaaij 😄

Is the introduction to the HLT up-to-date? Is all the content there that we want to teach?

One thing is to change the text about Run 2, for example

In Run II the reconstructions used in HLT2 and offline will be identical

Also things like if the HLT1 pT threshold may have changed in Run 2 (currently stated that HLT1 only reconstructs pT > 500 MeV).

There are some broken links as well, like in the sentence:

We will use the script we created earlier as a starting point, and the file you downloaded before.

Would you have time to go through the text and update it @roelaaij?

roelaaij commented 8 years ago

Yes, I'm planning to go through it. Can I view your Turbo material somewhere so I can try to ensure things match?

alexpearce commented 8 years ago

There is nothing yet 😞 But now we can discuss how we will do it.

I can just go through ‘how to make ntuples from Turbo stream µDSTs’. Or I could talk for a little bit about why Turbo exists and how it's useful. Or you could include that information in the HLT part.

I don't mind too much how we do it; we'll be doing the Turbo-ntuple-making stuff after the HLT session, so it shouldn't matter for the students at least.
