Welcome to Introduction to Python Programming

If you are unable or uncomfortable with installing programs to your computer you can use the following web-site. It will be fully functional for this bootcamp but will not provide some useful shortcuts.

OSX / Linux

  • Python is already installed -- =)

  • Install easy_install curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -o - | sudo python

  • Install pip sudo easy_install pip

Windows

Install Packages

  • pip install ipython
    • iPython replaces the standard interpreter and will provide a wealth of shortcuts and references to learn and work with

Optional

  • Install an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) --Sublime is a good free option, if you use it over time please make a donation, they do good work.
  • You can also use any text editor (Notepad, TextEdit, Gedit, ...)

Once you have completed the above installation please visit the following URL to complete a short assessment:
