Note

Notes:

The workshop modules work best in a sequential manner as a story introducing concepts and providing examples, but sections can be used separately to focus on a particular concept.
If you have existing conda Conda environments, or have installed your own version of Anaconda, then the examples within this workshop might provide different results.
You will need to modify user and username, project names, and folder locations to apply to yourself.
