<jupyter_start><jupyter_text>Chemistry   for Technology Students at GGC   *** Introduction to Notebooks This notebook will be used to probe concepts and solve problems in chemistry.  You will refer to the [online textbook, Chemistry-2e](https://openstax.org/details/books/chemistry-2e), published by [OpenStax](https://openstax.org/), and other sources.Your __investigation__ in Chemistry will be  _with this notebook_ combined with your __development__ as an information technology student.  The combination is not arbitrary: many of the tools used by research chemists, indeed scientists in any discipline, are based on information technology.  Thus, a scientist with advanced computer skills has access to avenues otherwise inaccessible, and a computer programmer who has experience with domains in science such as biology or chemistry can offer extra value to industry.  At the end of this course - no matter what your direction -  you will be faster, stronger, and more insightful.  Let's start with an introduction to a few tools. *** Python We will be using a very intuitive, very popular, very powerful scripting language: Python.Let's look at a small and simple demonstration.  In the cell below, type `1+1` and then `shift` + `enter`.<jupyter_code>1+1<jupyter_output><empty_output>
