Git Setup on Jupyter Hub
• Log on to the department's Jupyterhub instance
• Clone your Bitbucket belhavencs repo in your home directory
• Create a directory for this assigment:
cd belhavencs/csc221 mkdir hw2 cd hw2 mkdir ch{1..13}
• All of your chapter work will go inside belhavencs/csc221/hw2 (in individual directories: ch1 through ch13)
Chapters
For each chapter you will need to do the following:
• Create a README.md file in each directory, you can do this via the Jupyter server/notebook interface or by using vim.
• Work through the examples in the chapter. Don't just skim it, read it and type out the example code. You will have to modify it to make sense for you, but do the work.
• Do the activities at the end of each chapter. Take notes for each activity in your README.md file using Markdown formatting, making sure to separate each activity using headers and plenty of whitespace (e.g. # Activity 1)
Push Work to Bitbucket
To push your work up to Bitbucket:
cd ~/belhavencs/csc221/hw2 git add ch*/README.md git commit ch*/README.md -m 'first commit of README files for hw2' git push
To check your work, go to your belhavencs repo on Bitbucket and navigate to the belhavencs/csc221/hw2directory in the source tree. In each chapter directory, you should see pretty HTML of your work. If it looks like garbage, you might want to fix the Markdown code in your README.md files.
