Working with the code

The easiest way to work with this code it to run it on Colab, which is a free service that runs Jupyter notebooks in a web browser. For every chapter, I provide two notebooks: one contains the code from the chapter and the exercises; the other also contains the solutions.

If you want to run these notebooks on your own computer, you can download them individually from GitHub or download the entire repository in a Zip file.

I developed this book using Anaconda, which is a free Python distribution that includes all the packages you’ll need to run the code (and lots more). I found Anaconda easy to install. By default it does a user-level installation, so you don’t need administrative privileges. You can download it here.
