# data-science-ipython-notebooks Continually updated Data Science IPython Notebooks. This repo is a collection of IPython Notebooks I reference while working with data. Although I developed and maintain most notebooks, some notebooks I reference were created by other authors, who are credited within their notebook(s) by providing their names and/or a link to their source. For detailed instructions, scripts, and tools to more optimally set up your development environment for data analysis, check out the [data-dev-setup](https://github.com/donnemartin/data-dev-setup) repo.
