Introduction to Web Scraping: Setup

If you want to participate in the hands-on section, please install Anaconda prior to the workshop.

We will program with Python using the Jupyter notebook, a programming environment that runs in a web browser. For this to work you will need a reasonably up-to-date browser. The current versions of the Chrome, Safari and Firefox browsers are all supported (some older browsers, including Internet Explorer version 9 and below, are not).

Please make sure you install Python version 3.x, and test the Anaconda installation before attending the workshop.
