Anaconda distribution comes with over 250 packages automatically installed, and over 8,000 additional open-source
packages can be installed from PyPI as well as the conda package and virtual environment manager.

Jupyter

7. Jupyter

Project Jupyter is a non-profit, open-source project, born out of the IPython Project in 2014.
To run Jupyter notebook, just type `Jupyter notebook` in your conda terminal. Please make
sure that a proper conda environment is activated.
After that, you will be able to browse your root folder and create a notebook.

PyCharm

9. PyCharm

Source - https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/
Install PyCharm Community Edition (if you have your own Professional one, it’s okay ;-) )
After successful installation, go to the repo folder and right-click on it choosing
Interpreter Setting: Python -> Settings -> Python Interpreter

10. PyCharm

In a drop-down menu, click `Show All…`. If you do not see `python-lab`, click on ‘+’, then
choose ‘Conda Environment`, click on ‘Existing environment’
If the suggested environment is not ‘python-lab’, you will need to browse to find interpreter
for one. Just click on ‘…’ button and browse Anaconda environments to find necessary
`python.exe` file. Usually, it can be found here:
Users/<User>/Anaconda/envs/python-lab/python.exe
After that, close all windows by clicking on all OKs.

11. PyCharm

If everything is okay, you should see the similar window:

Git

13. Git

In this module you will work with GITHUB accounts.
Please use your PRIVATE repository from STAGE 1 and invite mentor from the file shared in Teams.
If for some reason you have not yet sent invitations to the coordinators before this stage, please also invite:
Hanna Gorskoviene (hannapetrashka), Viktoriya Shapkarina (ViktoriyaSh) as Collaborator
The name of your account should include your name and surname to easily find you.

14. Git

Source - https://git-scm.com/
Install Git. Please do make sure that `Git from command line and also 3rd party software` is
picked as well as integration with Windows Explorer (for quicker launch of Git Bash).
On your local machine, go to the folder where the project will reside.
Right-click and choose `Git Bash Here`.
In the command line, run `git clone https://github.com/alcahir/Python-Course.git`
After cloning is finished, you should go into the repo and create your own branch by running:
`git checkout -b <FirstName_LastName>` for your personal credentials.

15. Structure

16. Flow

For your home-tasks I recommend to use simple GitHub flow:
1.Create a Branch: from the main branch (main or master), create a branch with a meaningful name: <module_name><task_number>.
2.Complete the task on this branch. Commit changes with clear messages.
3.Push your branch to the remote repository: git push origin <branch-name>.
4.Create a Pull Request (PR) from your branch to the main branch. Include a clear description of the changes.
5.Address any comments by committing further changes to the same branch.
6.Once a PR approved(by mentor) and merged (by you or mentor ), the branch can be deleted. Do not reuse the branch for other
tasks.
IMPORTANT: Submitting a pull request confirms that you have completed the homework task and allows the mentor to begin reviewing it.
