JupyterHub for class

In doing your work, you will need a python3 environment with several libraries installed. To streamline this, we created a JupyterHub instance with the necessary environment pre-installed. We will use this JupyterHub for some homework assignments that are graded with nbgrader. Below are the links to the

Please give it a try and let us know how it works for you

Tip

Course material will be put in the shared folder, which is read-only. You will need to copy the files to your home area to modify them.

Tip

If you prefer the Jupyter Lab interface over the classic notebook, change the last part of the URL to “lab”, e.g. https://physga-2059-fall.rcnyu.org/user//lab/ (and replace <netid> with your netid)

Tip

The server will shutdown after 15 min of inactivity or (3 hours hard time limit). If you know you are done, click Control Panel in the top right and shutdown your server.
