Python for Lunch
This tutorial provides a brief introduction to Python for the Humanities. The repository can be downloaded by clicking on the "download ZIP" button on the right. Unzip the file and save it somewhere on your computer. In the sections below, I assume that you unzipped the file on your desktop.
If you want to follow along with the tutorial, please install the Anaconda Python distribution. Direct your browser to http://continuum.io/downloads#py34 and download the graphical installer. Double-click the downloaded file and install the Python distribution system-wide.
Once installed, open a terminal (on Linux or Mac OS X) or a command prompt (on Windows) and first cd to the directory in which you saved the tutorial. For Mac OS X users:
cd /Users/your-user-name/Desktop/python-for-lunch-master
For Linux users:
cd /home/your-user-name/Desktop/python-for-lunch-master
For Windows users:
cd c:\Users\your-user-name\Desktop\python-for-lunch-master
where you need to replace your-user-name with your actual user name! Next type:
ipython notebook
If this returns an error message such as "Command not found", please try running with:
jupyter notebook
This will launch the jupyter notebook in your browser. Click on the link that says Python for Lunch.ipynb.
If you're unable to install or run the notebook, you can use the following static page. Note that this page doesn't allow you to execute any code:
