This is a repo for the SCU Data Science with Python class.

We assume that you have a Python 2.7 environment supporting Enthought's venv backward port to Python 2.7.

To install all prerequisites with venv, type:

venv dsenv
source dsenv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

If you are using Anaconda or generic Python's virtualenv, type:

virtualenv dsenv
source dsenv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Many of the projects here assume the existence of configuration files which should be in the toplevel directory "cfg". This is not checked into github -- as these configuration files likely contain secrets (key pairs, magic numbers, etc.) which should be private to each client install.
