Quick start

Install the software below to run the code on this site. Once this software is installed, click the links at the top of the webpages to download the page as a script or jupyter notebook. The code should run on your computer inside visual studio code as long as the below software is installed:

1. .NET 7 SDK for your operating system.
   • This includes the F# language.

   • If it is installed correctly, then if you open a terminal (powershell on windows, terminal app on Mac) and type

     dotnet --version

     you should see a version number showing which SDK version you installed.

     PS C:\Users\nicho> dotnet --version 7.0.100 PS C:\Users\nicho>
