-Environment setup instructions are in the chapter 1 of the text. If you don't have the book, you will need to install Python 3.7 (3.7.1 or higher) or higher, [set up a virtual environment](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#creating-a-virtual-environment), [activate it](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#activating-a-virtual-environment), [fork](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo) and [clone](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo#cloning-your-forked-repository) this repository to obtain a local copy of the files, [change the current directory](https://alligator.io/workflow/command-line-basics-changing-directories/) to your local copy of the files, and then [install the required packages using the requirements.txt file](https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#using-requirements-files) inside the directory (note that `git` will need to be installed). You can then launch JupyterLab and use the `ch_01/checking_your_setup.ipynb` Jupyter notebook to check your setup. Consult [this resource](https://anbasile.github.io/programming/2017/06/25/jupyter-venv/) if you have issues with using your virtual environment in Jupyter.
