UInotebooks

This is a repo contains ALL code generated for Principles of Urban Informatics Class at NYU CUSP Fall 2016 for all the lectures taught by FBB.

(previous years: 2015 is here )

For the current homework sets and labs go to this Github repo.

This repo includes notebooks that will be explored in class, notebooks to be used as templates for lab sessions, and notebooks that generate plots used in the class, and class slides.

To run the notebooks, make sure that you have a directory for the plots, and outputs to be stored in, identified by environmental variables PUI2015, PUI15PLOTS, PUI2016 etc, as needed.

Numerous python packages are needed: numpy, scipy, sklearn, statsmodules, pandas. Mostly I try to be PEP8 compliant, but I am sloppy sometimes (while you should never be!).

If you are a PUI student you may want to make a copy of this repository, and you definitely want to check for updates regularly.

If you just want to have your own copy of the repository on your machine what you want to do it clone the repository on your machine as

git clone https://github.com/fedhere/UInotebooks.git

That way if I make changes you can update them locally on your machine with

git pull

but you will not be able to make changes to my repository (as it should be).

Otherwise, if you want the repository on your account, with the ability to make changes to your own copy, you can fork the repository and have your own copy in your github account (it will be at http://github.com//PUI2016_fb55). In which case you want to keep it synchronized following these instructions to coniguting a remote for a fork and syncing a fork

If you see a mistake (there are many of course) and you want to propose a change you can submit a pull request, but be very clear about the change and it motivation in the description of your pull request, otherwise I will likely dismiss it as something you did accidentally.
