Goal

Get your laptop setup for the course and start refreshing on Python.

Laptop Setup

Jeff Ondich has a nice walk through for setting up your computer for this course, so work through Section 2. Set up a Unix command-line interface on your work computer.

I recommend you also install VSCode since it’s what I’ll be using to demonstrate things and it has a whole lot of really useful extensions, such as Remote Development and Live Share.

Also work through Section 3 but don’t make a repository yet and send your GitHub username to this survey instead.

Python Refreshing

Work through exercises 1 and 3 of this lab. If you’re really rusty or need a reference, check out W3 Schools’ tutorial.

Unix Tutorial

If you’ve gotten this far, feel free to start on the Unix Tutorial which is the prep for Friday.
