Module Overview
This lecture is intended to be a concise summary of the `What?, Why? and How?' of the module.
We will uses the programming language [python](https://www.python.org) to study common tasks in discrete mathematics applications in computer science. So we will start with a small exercise to help you get become familiar with python syntex.
The aim of our first practical is to get you started with the [Python programming language](https://www.python.org/) and working with notebooks using [Google's Colab environment](https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/intro.ipynb).
This is a short slide desk showing the process of opening a python notebook in colab, completing the required work, and then uploading your work to Moodle for grading.
