Python Programming

Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualisations and explanatory text.

You may find this useful especially for doing quick prototyping experiments and generating visualisations. You can change and run small parts of your code, without having to rerun your whole script from the beginning.

It is not necessary to use Jupyter Notebook for this course (I hardly use it myself!) So feel free to skip this if you do not find it useful.

Jupyter Notebook was formerly known as iPython Notebook (hence the file extension *.ipynb)

To install Jupyter notebook, use pip install jupyter.
