Computer Labs
=============

We will be programming in the Julia language, and we access Julia from the VS Code editor.

Your typical workflow starts by starting VS Code and then opening a so-called `Jupyter notebook`
which contains your coding exercises. 

| You can find all the Jupyter notebooks in my public Github repo
