To run the notebooks (and later the code you are going to write within this course)
you are expected to have installed the following packages:
python 2.7+
numpy (anything above 1.6, 1.9+ recommended, optimally
compiled with some BLAS library [MKL, OpenBLAS, ATLAS, etc.)
scipy (optional, but may be useful to do some tests)
matplotlib (for plotting)
ipython (v3.0+, 4.0 recommended)
notebook (notebooks are in version 4.0)

do this on DICE, and what configuration you are expected to have.
For now, it suffices if you get the software working on your
personal computers so you can start ipython notebook server
