You will need a few tools to complete your coursework. This guide covers the "what" and the "how". Be careful to follow the steps closely, they're easy to mess up!

Install Google Chrome

At LearningFuze, we'll be using Google's Chrome browser, so if you don't already have it installed, you should download and install Chrome now.

(Data Science Only) Sign Up for a Google Colab

Data Scientists often use digital notebooks for cleaning and analyzing data, as well as fine-tuning predictive models. Sometimes those tasks can be very computationally expensive and require cloud-based notebooks to finish in a reasonable time. Here at LearningFuze, we'll be using Google Colab. Sign-in or sign-up for a Google Account, then connect Google Colab to your Google Account.
