Assignment Instructions

This assignment is hosted as a Jupyter notebook, a copy of which is in this weeks folder. For ease of dealing with the external packages needed, the notebook is hosted on a publically accessible binder hub at Flatiron Institute. Please read the instructions for using the binder hub.

You can access the binder hub for this course at: https://binder.flatironinstitute.org/~akuznetsova/models or by heading to https://binder.flatironinstitute.org/ and entering

owner: akuznetsova project: models

The folder will contain the github folder for this course titled spf-2024 in which you will find copies of the homework notebooks and course materials as well as the libraries installed for running any of the code. Anything you generate with binder is hosted on a server unique to you, the server will run keeping all your notebooks, data, and computations until you shut it down (or after 7 days of inactivity).

You can download the notebook you ran and any files you generate directly to your computer using the Download button. Please remember to rename the notebook from the template name prior to submission

To receive credit for this assignment, please commit your copy of the notebook (with all code executed and plots generated) to the course github in the w1/submissions folder with the commit title of HOMEWORK 1 - [NAME] and leave a reply in this Assignment thread with a link to the submission.
