Installing Python and Jupyter Notebook

You can experiment with the code online without installation using Google CoLab.

To work on assignments, you can use one of several environments:

• Use the online service Google CoLab. No additional installations are necessary.
• Install Visual Studio Code. It will prompt you to install all needed software when you open a notebook file.
• Install Python, JupyterLab and all needed packages yourself using pip or conda. You can also use Anaconda for easier installation.
