Webinar: Writing Good SKILL Code

Andrew Beckett
Andrew Beckett over 6 years ago

A bit of self-promotion here, but I thought I'd mention that I'm giving a webinar on Wednesday 3rd July which may be of interest to those in the community forums.

Join Custom IC AE Group Director, Andrew Beckett for this free, one-hour live webinar.

When? Wednesday, July 3, 10:30 CEST

SKILL® is the programming language used to customize various Cadence applications such as the Virtuoso® and Allegro® environments.

In this webinar, I’ll present tips on how to write good, maintainable SKILL code so that others in your team can use and understand your code.

Agenda

  • Style and formatting
  • Good coding practice
  • How to defensively check for errors
  • Strategies for writing efficient code
  • Taking advantage of the SKILL IDE
  • Optimizing programs
