Before the practice sessions
Please install Anaconda with Python version 3. You are allowed to use Python 2, but we cannot promise that everything we plan to do will be supported there. After installation make sure you are able to run jupyter notebook. Windows users open Anaconda prompt, other users just run from command line jupyter notebook. This should open a tab in your browser with your folder system. Go to a folder where you want your notebooks to be and create a new notebook by choosing New -> Python (from top right). After the notebook is open type in some commands like
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import sklearn
print("hello")
and press SHIFT + ENTER. If everything works then you are ready for the practice session. If some of the packages cannot be imported run conda install package-name to install the necessary packages.
If you have problems with this then write to the course forum in Piazza!
