Assignments

Assignments will be distributed on Tuesdays and are due in two weeks on Tuesday, BEFORE CLASS STARTS. No late assignments will be graded.


Resources for learning python

Most assignments require calculation and plotting using Python in Jupyter Notebooks. Python is a powerful programming language, while Jupyter Notebooks provide an easy, web-based way to combine code, plots, and descriptive text.

Students are encouraged to install Python and Jupyter using the popular Anaconda distribution. See our Python resources page for instructions. Students enrolled in this course will also be granted access to a SUSTech server running Jupyter, but this can only be used within the SUSTech network (but you can use a SUSTech VPN outside campus).

If you are new to Python or to Jupyter, we recommend that you go through a few online tutorials. Check out our Python resources page.
