Check out the installation page on this website which was copied from the MIT course Computational Thinking, or just watch the following video to learn how to set up Julia and Pluto โ two pieces of software you will need to run the course materials on your own computer.
We used several Pluto.jl notebooks in this lecture. Here are three rendered ones:
Topic | Notebook |
