Julia: There are several ways to access Julia:

To use Julia from your lab computer, click on the Julia icon. This will open the Google Chrome browser. Select a project. Your work will be erased when you log off.

To use Julia from home online for free (without storing work), use https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/mth229/229-projects/master

To use Julia from home or online with persistent storage, see the instructions at https://mth229.github.io/.

Projects: There are 10 projects due. The projects, along with useful notes, are available at https://mth229.github.io/. Your actual work that must be submitted will come from each project loaded into a Julia notebook. You can "run" cells by (1) shift-enter, or (2) click on the "Run" button, or (3) click on "Cell" then "Run all". If you open a new Julia notebook, remember to run “using MTH229” on the first line.

To submit your project for grading, use the grading site http://www.math.csi.cuny.edu/MATLAB/Login. Keep open both the Julia notebook and the grading site so that you can copy and paste your answers.
