Welcome to DSE 200! The purpose of this course is to introduce you to python and to the UNIX/open-source ecosystem. This will give you the tools needed to perform data analysis “in the wild”.

The material to this course is in a github repository here. You can see the static notebooks on the repository, if you want run the notebooks you need to clone to your computer.

Homework assignments will be submitted through github. This means that you need to write (or “push”) your changes to github. In order to save your changes, move the cloned directory to your private repository and then git add m git commit -m "message" and git push it.

Please use this link to register yourself on the piazza page for this course. We will be using it for all further announcements.

See you in the class!
