Introduction

Lab 1 has two separate parts, and each part has a set-up phase and a use phase. The goal for this lab is to have access to Python via Google Co-Lab and to Maple via a Duke container.

Google Colab

At The Beginning of Lab

Create / Log-in to a Google Account

Log-in to Google Drive

Log-in to Google Colab

  • In another tab in the same browser, go to https://colab.research.google.com
    • In the Colab tab, click File and select "New notebook" - among other things, if you haven't gone here before, this will create a "Colab Notebooks" folder in your Google Drive

Get files from My Google Drive on your computer

Expand and upload the HW00soln folder to Your Google Drive

  • On your computer:
    • Find and open the HW00soln.zip file
      • On Windows, click the "Extract all" icon at the top of the page when you open the file -- keep track of where it extracts the file to
      • On macOS,
  • In the Google Drive tab, double-click on the "Colab Notebooks" folder to open it
    • Right-click in the blank space and select "Folder Upload"
    • Go find where you extracted the "HW00soln" folder and drag it into the "Colab Notebooks" folder

Open and run the findfits.ipynb notebook

  • In the Google Drive tab, double-click on "Colab Notebooks" then "HW00soln" then "findfits.ipynb" -- Google Colab should automatically open a new tab with the "findfits.ipynb" notebook.
    • If your browser tries to open findfits.ipynb but says there's no way to preview it instead of opening Google Colab, try this:
      • At the top of the "no preview" page there should be a box with a down arrow on the right side
      • Click the down arrow to add apps
      • Scroll down in that window a little and Google Colaboratory should be there - click on it
      • Uninstall it, then install it
      • When you go back to the window, that box at the top will have "Open in Colaboratory" in it
  • In the "findfits.ipynb" tab, click "Runtime" and select "Run all". As the notebook is running, it should ask if you will permit your notebook to access your Google Drive files. You should allow it to...

Open the Pundit page for the assignment

  • In another tab in the same browser, go to Homework 0

At the end of lab


Maple
