pytudes
"An étude (a French word meaning study) is an instrumental musical composition, usually short, of considerable difficulty, and designed to provide practice material for perfecting a particular musical skill." — Wikipedia
This project contains pytudes—Python programs, usually short, for perfecting particular programming skills.
Some programs are in Jupyter (.ipynb
) notebooks, some in .py
files. For each notebook you can:
- Click on c to run the notebook on Colab
- Click on d to run the notebook on DeepNote
- Click on m to run the notebook on MyBinder
- Click on n to view the notebook on NBViewer
- Click on the title to view the notebook on github.
