Learn Python 3

Introduction

This repository contains a collection of materials for teaching/learning Python 3 (3.10+).

Requirements

• Have Python 3.10 or newer installed. You can check the version by typing python3 --version in your command line. You can download the latest Python version from here.
• Have Jupyter Notebook installed. pip install jupyter is sufficient in most cases.

If you can not access Python and/or Jupyter Notebook on your machine, you can still follow the web based materials. However, you should be able to use Jupyter Notebook in order to complete the exercises.

Usage (locally)

1. Clone or download this repository.
2. Run jupyter notebook command in your command line in the repository directory.
3. Jupyter Notebook session will open in the browser and you can start navigating through the materials.

Usage (Binder in the cloud)

You can also just use Binder: By clicking of this badge, the project is opened in a Jupyter instance in the cloud and you can then navigate to the folders containing the notebooks and start them each and interactively explore them!
