Motivation: We want our research to be reproducible. Reproducibilty requires both that the person reproducing your research (1) has access to the same version of the code and (2) uses the exact same version of the packages needed in this code. To satisfy these requirements, GitHub is used to allow the reproducer to use the exact versions of the code and
