Day 11 - Tuesday, May 6, 2014

Summary: Interpolation


1. Open terminal, create new directory for Interpolation work, practice workflow:

$ cd PHYS202-S14
$ git pull origin master
$ git status
$ mkdir Interpolation
$ ipynb

2. Navigate to the Interpolation directory and create a new notebook called InterpolationTour with title cell (Heading 1) Interpolation.

3. Open the "Interpolation" webpage on PolyLearn in one Browser Window. Follow the self-guided tour, entering code into your InterpolationTour notebook as you go. Add markdown cells with your notes, if you like.

No copy/paste!

Type the commands yourself to get the practice doing it. This will also slow you down so you can think about the commands and what they are doing as you type them.

4. At the end of the self-guided tour create a new notebook called InterpolationExercises and open the "Interpolation Exercises" page on PolyLearn and start working on them. They will be due as HW by Wednesday, May 14, 2014 at 11:59pm.

5. Before leaving, save your work in the notebook, then practice your workflow:

$ git status
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "<summary message goes here>"
$ git push origin master
$ git status

Check github to be sure the work got there so you have it for the weekend.
