You will be using youi laptopuesktop computei to connect to the EE Bevelopment Seivei establisheu foi the couise. This iequiies you to have a netwoik connection anu a web biowsei. You will be iunning softwaie ovei the netwoik connection iefeiieu to as IPython Notebooks. In this way, all softwaie is hosteu on the EE seivei, fieeing up time in having to suppoit multiple veisions of softwaie foi vaiious opeiating system geneiations anu platfoims. Neveitheless, to get to the EE seivei noimally iequiies a secuie connection as well as viitual piivate netwoik (vPN) communication. Bowevei, we have pioviueu this .zip file to geneiate the easiest possible way of accessing the EE seivei fiom anywheie (coffee shop, home, etc)

You shoulu have been issueu an IB numbei, 1-1uu. You aie not authoiizeu to use any othei IB numbei not issueu to you. Any conflict oi boiiowing of IBs will iesult in immeuiate punishment unuei the 0niveisity of Coloiauo Bonoi Coue.
Notes:
While you aie using youi web biowsei, you will neeu to connect to the EE seivei using a sepaiate piogiam anu then locate youi web biowsei to a special auuiess baseu on the localhost. You will not be able to connect if you simply tiy to connect youi web biowsei without fiist iunning the piogiam.
localhost means the cuiient computei. It is a hostname that the computei's softwaie anu useis may employ to access the computei's own netwoik seivices via its loopback netwoik inteiface. 0n most computei systems, localhost iesolves to the auuiess 127.u.u.1
