Running the notebooks #

To install the necessary software, I recommend doing so in a Python virtual environment. We need Python3. Doing something like:

$ python3 -m venv sci-comp
$ . sci-comp/bin/activate # Or other script if you use a different shell
$ pip install numpy scipy pandas ipython jupyter
$ cd path/to/repo/material
$ jupyter notebook

Will pop up a browser window.

If this results in an AssertionError (see https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/4937), try installing an older version of jupyter-client in the virtual environment:

$ pip install jupyter-client==5.3.1
