So here in the editor, I'm going to open up the conditionals_start file. And if you're using Colab, you can just go ahead and copy and paste the starting point code into a notebook cell.

So I'm going to copy this and paste it into Colab. And if you need to make a new code cell, just go ahead and click on + Code. And we'll come back to that in just a moment.
