CSE/STAT 416, Summer 2019: Homework 0: Review and Course Tools

Submission

This assignment is due by Friday, June 28 at 11:59 pm.

You should submit your finished Getting Started with iPython Notebooks.ipynb, Getting Started with Python.ipynb, and Getting Started with Pandas.ipynb on Gradescope in the [A0: Upload] Course Tools assignment. You should also complete the assignments [A0: Programming] Course Tools and [A0: Concept] Review of Foundations by the deadline.

You may submit any part of the assignment assignment as many times as you want before the late cutoff (remember submitting after the due date will cost late days).

Note: For this assignment only, we show the correct answers for the submission assignments so you can verify you can use the tools correctly. This will not be true for future assignments. Please make sure you ask questions early!

Gradescope

For each homework, there will be three assignments listed on Gradescope.

  • The first will be tagged Concept which is where you will answer conceptual questions about that week's material. This counts towards to Concept portion of your final grade.
  • The second will be tagged Programming which is where you will answer questions you answered in the programming portion. This counts towards to Programming portion of your final grade.
  • The last section will be tagged Upload which is where you upload your Jupyter Notebook(s) for that week. This is technically not worth any points, but any submission that does not include the completed Jupyter Notebooks will receive a 0 for the programming portion.

Option A - Google Colaboratory

If you are planning on using Colab, you can find the notebooks here. You'll have to save them to your Google Drive to edit and save them.

Once you have completed the assignment, you should download the Jupyter Notebook (File > Download .ipynb) and upload that to Gradescope. Remember, you should use the ipynb option!

Option B - Local Development

If you are planning on using your local computer, make sure you have completed the Software Setup. Download the Jupyter Notebooks and data file from here. Launch the Jupyter Notebook using the Anaconda Navigator and navigate to the directory you downloaded the notebooks. The notebooks should be in the same folder as the data.

Once you have completed the assignment, you should upload the completed notebooks to Gradescope. Remember, you should use the .ipynb files!
