Where to find ALminer

Installation

It's as simple as

> pip install alminer

Dependencies

  • ALminer works in Python>=3.6
  • We depend on numpy, matplotlib, pandas, pyvo, & astropy

Let's get started...

  • This presentation is a live Jupyter Notebook so you can follow along with me!
  • Each cell can be executed by pressing Shift+Enter

We first need to import all the relevant packages

In [1]:
import alminer
import pandas
from astropy.io import ascii

If you were successful in running the notebook so far, we are ready to begin!
