Overview

The purpose of this homework is to make sure you've got a development environment set up so you can write and test code for the remaining assignments. Your development environment includes:

  • The proper version of Python (namely 2.7)
  • Installation of necessary libraries (e.g. Pandas, NumPy, etc.)
  • Installation of historical stock data.

Important note: We use a specific, static set of data for this course. If you download your own data from Yahoo, you will get the wrong answers on the assignments.

Task

You should:

  • Follow installation instructions here
  • Test your environment by running the script validation.py
  • If validation.py complains, fix the problems, then repeat

Copy and paste the last 10 lines of output of validation.py into your own text file, submission.txt
