Interactive Educational Applet for the Florida State University Department of Scientific Computing courses. Inspired by the interactive educational modules developed for Michael Heath's scientific computing textbook.
At this time, the interactive educational applet is best installed through conda to easily obtain the necessary package python-graphviz due to an annoying issue found on Windows 8 (not tested on Windows 10, yet). There are ways to get around this by installing Graphviz and dealing with PATH names appropriately, but using conda is the easier/safer option.
Suggested setup is via a fresh conda environment:
conda create --name ENV-NAME -c conda-forge --file requirements.txt
conda activate ENV-NAME or source activate ENV-NAME if using MacOS
Use python main.py in the parent level StudioPy directory.
The general infrastructure for the applet is in place. There will be modifications as needed, if needed, but for now focus is on educational content submodules. There will be documentation provided very soon on designing, implementing, integrating, and testing new submodules for the new applet.
There are some small bugs littered throughout that can cause crashes from unexpected user input. Those will be solved with some exception handling. For the most part, this won't affect use of the applet, however, they do need to be taken care of soon so that a systematic infrastructure can be put in place as this will ultimately be an issue for future submodules developed by anybody.
Unit testing of some sort will be implemented soon, as well, improve the developer experience.
