The tools you need
- [Instructor] Before working through the exercises in this course, I want to make sure that you have the tools you need to be successful. The first thing you want to make sure to do is install or verify that you have the latest version of Python Three. I will be working in Python 3.8. So if you have the latest version of Python Three, you should be able to run my code. However, if you're still on Python Two, you may run into some difficulty. I will be running my code in Jupyter Notebooks. The Jupyter Notebook is a great platform for combining live code, descriptive text about the code, visualizations and equations in one simple to use interface. Luckily, everything you need, which includes the latest version of Python Three and the Jupyter Notebooks environment, is available by installing Anaconda. Anaconda is a package manager, an environment manager, a Python distribution and a collection of over 7,500 open source packages. It is free and easy to install and it offers free community support. You can install Anaconda by going to the address provided here.
