Teaching_Scripts

Here is a list of simple interactive teaching scripts. Comments and contributions are welcome.

A lot of the content is in German, as the material is used in lectures at a German university.

Note: I’ve transitioned from interactive html pages created with nbinteract to a direct usage of mybinder. Starting any of the scripts may take a few minutes depending on when the last built took place.
