This repository contains jupyter notebooks used for the introductory python sessions held each summer for the Carnegie Astrophysics Summer Student Internship (CASSI) program.
The notebooks make reference to the data files that are also located in this repository. Along with the two primary notebooks (IntroToPython and Visualization), there are also some extra notebooks that showcase more advanced topics, including:
- Vectorizing code
- Debugging
- Model fitting
- Bayesian inference and Markov Chain Monte Carlo.
These are located in the MoreNotebooks folder.
To download this repository to your computer, run:
git clone https://github.com/obscode/FlyingCircus.git
This will create a folder (FlyingCircus). Change to this folder and run the jupyter notebook viewer:
jupyter-notebook
You should now get a browser from which you can select and launch the various ipython notebook files (*.ipynb).
