-Throughout this class, we'll be using several python packages extensively.  If you've never used them before, we **strongly** encourage you to play around with them and get comfortable.
-They are:
-* ''numpy'' - Python's package that provides high-performance matrix, vector and linear algebra operations
-* ''matplotlib'' - a package for basic plotting and visualization of data
-* ''seaborn'' - a nice visualization package that builds on matplotlib.  Produces nicer visualizations, and has some built-in data analytics
-All assignments will be turned in using ipython notebooks. If you've never used ipython before, you can either run it in a browser using something like ''jupyter'', or you can run it interactively from a terminal using:
-''ipython --pylab''
-(I often find it easier to do my code development interactively in the terminal, then save a final notebook to turn in).
-If you're more comfortable with IDEs, you may also want to check out ''spyder'' or ''pycharm''.
