Please come prepared to start working in your Python interpreter during the lesson. If you are going to be bringing a different computer than the one you brough and setup last time, you will need to go through the setup section of the [[Community Data Science Workshops/Friday April 4th setup and tutorial|setup and tutorial session from the first Friday session]]. You don't need to do the tutorial or CodeAcademy lessons again unless you think that you could use a refresher. You can also skip the sections about installing ''Colorwall'' and ''Wordplay''. We won't be looking at those in this session.
 
In the lecture, we're going to be doing building some simple visualizations online in [http://docs.google.com Google Docs]. Please make sure you have a Google Account you can use for the session and poke around at theand create a new Google Spreadsheet. I suspect that most of you are going to use Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice, Gnumeric, etc., in your work after the class but using Google Docs means that we'll all be using the same software during the lecture.
