What does it mean to make a copy of the assignment 0 notebook? #2

Hi everyone, I‘m new to Python so I have a very novice question to ask. What does it mean to make a copy of the assignment 0? Am I supposed to copy all the codes and paste them into a new notebook file on my Jupter? Thank you in advance!

What I did is download the code of this repository and open the assignment file on my Jupter. It works so far.

Hi @fxj483, it means that you should make a copy of the .ipynb file (CTRL + C) and save it in a different folder than the folder of the cloned github repository :)

The reason for this it to avoid your work getting lost when getting newly added files from the github repository.

@jsr-p Thank you very much! Your explanation is very clear!
