Much of this course will be taught in a “flipped” style. This means we give you notebooks to review outside of class and we use in-class time to work on meaningful problems. Many of our pre-class assignments notebooks use videos to help communicate ideas (in lieu of lecture time in class).

The following two cells will embed the lectures in the notebooks. Run the cells using the “Shift-Enter” key combination described above. Once the video appears just click on the “Play” triangle.

These videos explain Python and Jupyter in more detail.
