The objective of the first pset is to familiarize with Python and the Jupyter notebook that we'll be using in this course.
You'll complete three exercises in a Jupyter notebook:
Read the quick start guide first.
Make sure the VM is up to date as indicated in Updating the 16.410 VM. The folder pset1-python-warmup
will appear in the ~/jupyter/psets
folder.
Open the Jupyter notebook with the desktop shortcut. Then navigate to psets > pset1-python-warmup > ProblemSet01_PythonWarmup.ipynb
Read the instructions in the notebook and complete with your answers. See Jupyter/IPython documentation for more information about the Jupyter notebook.
Also remember that the first recitation (F 09/09) will cover how to use the virtual machine and the Jupyter notebook.
You need to submit the completed Jupyter notebook that contains your solutions in Stellar before the deadline.
Follow the instructions here for instructions on how to do that.
Remember that you can post questions in our Piazza Forum. Please do not post answers to the problems, though.
