Technical requirements

Although this is mostly a conceptual chapter, you need at least the following software to follow the code snippets:

• Python 3.6 or higher
• Jupyter Notebook
• Recent versions of the following Python libraries: NumPy and matplotlib

I strongly recommend that you install Anaconda Distribution (go to https://www.anaconda.com/) so you have most of the software we will use in the rest of the book. If you are not familiar with Anaconda, we will talk about it later in the chapter, so please keep reading.
