📋 Prerequisites

• 💻 Basic Computer Skills
  • Familiarity with using a computer, web browsers, and file management.
• 🐍 Python Environment Setup
  • Ability to set up a Python development environment, including:
    • Installation of Python (Anaconda or standalone).
    • Familiarity with using Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) like Jupyter Notebook, PyCharm, or Visual Studio Code.

⚙️ Setup

This project requires Python v3.10 or higher. It was developed and tested using Python v3.12.8. If you encounter issues, consider using this specific Python version.

📝 List of Dependencies

Installing matplotlib, numpy, pandas, and torch is OPTIONAL. They are used exclusively in the Dependencies Notebook to demonstrate how to import and manage dependencies effectively.

📦 Install Dependencies

📦 Method 1: uv (Recommended ✅)

• Use uv for dependency management. It handles dependencies, virtual environments, and locking versions more efficiently than pip.

• To install exact dependency versions specified in uv.lock for consistent environments without installing the current project as a package:

    uv sync --no-install-project                   # Install only numpy
    uv sync --no-install-project --extra complete  # Install numpy + optional dependencies

📦 Method 2: Pip

• Install all dependencies listed in requirements.txt using pip:

  pip install -r requirements.txt

• Note: The requirements.txt includes complete installation of dependencies. Comment matplotlib, numpy, pandas, and torch in order to skip Dependencies section`.

🛠️ Usage Instructions

1. Open the root folder with VS Code (Ctrl/Cmd + K followed by Ctrl/Cmd + O).
2. Open .ipynb files using the Jupyter extension integrated with VS Code.
3. Select the correct Python kernel and virtual environment where the dependencies were installed.
4. Allow VS Code to install any recommended dependencies for working with Jupyter Notebooks.

✍️ Notes:

• It is highly recommended to stick with the exact dependency versions specified in uv.lock or requirements.txt rather than using the latest package versions. The repository has been tested on these versions to ensure compatibility and stability.
• This repository is actively maintained, and dependencies are updated regularly to the latest stable versions.
• The table of contents embedded in the notebooks may not function correctly on GitHub.
• For an improved experience, open the notebooks locally or view them via nbviewer.
