How To Prepare

Please install:
Google Chrome, 
Anaconda, available at https://www.anaconda.com/download
A text editor you like: perhaps Emacs, Vim, VS Code, or TextEdit.

Anaconda is a Python package management and Python installation. You
might already have installed a different Python interpreter and
package manager that you like, and it's perfectly fine to stick with
that one. I'll use the Anaconda distribution for the tutorial, for the
sake of simplifying the examples, but you can use a different Python
setup if you prefer.

I specify Google Chrome because of its support for inspecting
internals of web pages. Safari, Firefox, and Edge offer these
capabilities too. I'll be using Chrome for simplicity,

Check: Launch the Anaconda-Navigator from the Applications folder on your
Mac or the Start button on your Windows machine. If you can launch
Anaconda-Navigator, you're ready to roll.
