What you need for this book

You are encouraged to follow the examples in this book. In order to do so, you will need a computer, an Internet connection, and a browser. The book is written in Python 3.4, but it should also work with any Python 3.* version. I have written instructions on how to install Python on the three main operating systems used today: Windows, Mac, and Linux. I have also explained how to install all the extra libraries used in the various examples and provided suggestions if the reader finds any issues during the installation of any of them. No particular editor is required to type the code; however, I suggest that those who are interested in following the examples should consider adopting a proper coding environment. I have given suggestions on this matter in the first chapter.
