README

These are the files for the book Learn to Code with Basketball.

If you're not familiar with Git or GitHub, no problem. Just click the Source code link under the latest release to download the files. This will download a file called code-basketball-files-vX.X.X.zip, where X.X.X is the latest version.

When you unzip these (note in the book I've dropped the version number and renamed the directory just code-basketball-files, which you can do too) you'll see four sub-directories: code, data, anki, solutions-to-excercises.

You don't have to do anything with these right now except know where you put them. For example, on my mac, I have them in my home directory:

/Users/nathanbraun/code-basketball-files

If I were using Windows, it might look like this:

C:\Users\nathanbraun\code-basketball-files

Set these aside for now and we'll pick them up in chapter 2.
