Chapter 2 Installation

Chapter 2 Installation

Exercises 1 & 2

Install pandas on your machine (using Anaconda or pip)

Install Jupyter on your machine

Installation instructions for pandas can be found here

Installation instructions for Jupyter can be found here

Additional installation instructions can be found as part of the Anaconda Documentation here. Anaconda comes out of the box with both pandas and Jupyter. I highly recommend it.

Exercise 3

Launch Jupyter and execute the following:

import pandas
pandas.show_versions()
