Hi everyone,
Please find below the link to the folder containing all of the codes for the course:
Link:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1tceg8qw4x7f88h/AADlDK3-hxnLFydtQa4SschKa?dl=0
This folder contains the files that we will use throughout the course, for each section.
Important Note 1: Please download this folder on your local machine and when working with the files please remember to double-check the path or the working directory. If you are using Spyder, you can use the file explorer to change the location and also to navigate into the folder structure to open specific files. If you want to create new folders please just keep the path and file location in mind.
For further information on working within Spyder and the file explorer please see the following:
https://docs.spyder-ide.org/fileexplorer.html
Important Note 2: If you are using the terminal or prompt for working with any of the files, you can always run the ls command to check the current directory contents and also cd to change the directory depending on the current location. Please become familiar with these commands as they will help as you navigate in any type of project for a terminal-based operation.
