Ten Simple Rules

This post originally appeared on the Software Carpentry website.

The "Ten Simple Rules" series being run in PLoS Computational Biology has a lot of useful gems. Written by editor-in-chief Philip Bourne and others, the entire collection to date is available as a single PDF, but for those who prefer bite-sized reading, here are ten simple rules for:

...Starting a Company (PDF)
...Getting Involved in Your Scientific Community (PDF)
...Teaching Bioinformatics at the High School Level (PDF)
...Developing a Short Bioinformatics Training Course (PDF)
...Getting Help from Online Scientific Communities (PDF)
...Building and Maintaining a Scientific Reputation (PDF)
...Providing a Scientific Web Resource (PDF)
...Getting Ahead as a Computational Biologist in Academia (PDF)
...Editing Wikipedia (PDF)
...Organizing a Virtual Conference—Anywhere (PDF)
...Chairing a Scientific Session (PDF)
...Choosing between Industry and Academia (PDF)
...Combining Teaching and Research (PDF)
...Organizing a Scientific Meeting (PDF)
...Aspiring Scientists in a Low-Income Country (PDF)
...Graduate Students (PDF)
...Doing Your Best Research, According to Hamming (PDF)
...a Good Poster Presentation (PDF)
...Making Good Oral Presentations (PDF)
...a Successful Collaboration (PDF)
...Selecting a Postdoctoral Position (PDF)
...Reviewers (PDF)
...Getting Grants (PDF)

So, what would your ten simple rules for good computational science be?
