Hydrogen

There are two versions of the notebook files. The iPython notebooks (.ipynb) and the Hydrogen text files (prefix w/ "hydrogen_") in the hydrogen folder. Hydrogen is a notebook environment for Atom text editor. I particularly like the Hydrogen approach, it is based on the forwarding thinking from an IDE called Light Table by Bret Victor. Go read about it!
