Review the Jupyter and Python lecture notes page #24

Closed moorepants closed 2 years ago

I have a first draft of:

https://moorepants.github.io/learn-multibody-dynamics/jupyter-python.html

It needs a look over for details. Feel free to open a pull request to improve this file:

Final draft is live.

I read the lecture notes and everything is clear in my opinion. %paste command at the beginning is not working for me "UsageError: Line magic function %paste not found." and it's not listed as %lsmagic output everything else is working fine

moorepants commented 2 years ago

Thanks. I'll change the %paste example to something else.

The examples in this page with hyperlinks for every concept for example lists, tuples and dictionaries are useful and clear. In the introduction of Jupyter notebook should we specifically mention to install anaconda for people working in windows?

moorepants commented 2 years ago

I think I need an install page added to the notes. Just haven't gotten around to it. The course website has some install instructions.

I think that I want to suggest installing miniconda instead of anaconda and then to configure to install from conda forge. This mimics what I personally do.

moorepants commented 2 years ago

@akshath03 Can you try out these instructions and tell me if it works for you: https://moorepants.github.io/learn-multibody-dynamics/install.html

It would be nice to try on WIndows and Mac by you all, because I am on Linux and can't test the other OS's.

akshath03 commented 2 years ago

Yes, I already tried running jupyter notebook from this link. I think both are similar and works fine.

One thing I was worried about is whether the conda update --all is extremely slow in Anaconda vs Miniconda. If you add the conda forge channel to an anaconda install and then run update all, it basically has to uninstall all the anaconda packages and download new versions from conda forge. Anyone experience that?

Calling this one done!
