Closing Exercise


Go back to your own work: How can you apply what we have done to what you are working on?

  • If you haven’t used Git before, set up a repo and do a git init (or setup a GitLab project) for your work.

  • If you haven’t coded in Python before, can you use what we learned to implement a small piece of your work in ~30min?

  • If you have used Python before, can you improve a piece of your work in ~30min?
