We will use the programming language python later in the semester for some programming projects. Python has the advantage of being relatively easy to get started with.
You should do the following:
- Create an account on trinket.io, which is a browser-based coding environment that is designed for teaching and coursework.
- Take a look at one of their introductions to python, such as
- https://hourofpython.trinket.io/a-visual-introduction-to-python
- https://docs.trinket.io/getting-started-with-python
- Since we are going to be talking about (mathematical) sets, get familiar with Python’s sets (e.g., see https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/sets-in-python/)
