How to run the code in this repo

The easiest way to run the code in this repo is to open up a GitHub codespace. Here are the steps for doing so.

1. Click the green code button in the top right corner of this page

2. Click create codespace on main

3. the codespace will take a few minutes to fully open and load all contents

4. Open up one of the notebooks by clicking on a file that ends in .ipynb on the left side of the screen

5. It will take some time to open, once it does, you can start running the code! Do this sequentially starting from the top to make sure all the data is loaded into your environment correctly. Start running code by either clicking the play button on the top of each code cell. Or use the mac shortcut shift+enter. You may be prompted to "select a kernel" the first time you run your code. You can select python and the recommended version 3.10.4
