<p><em>We’re going to practice your data science skills using Callysto. Callysto uses something called “Jupyter notebooks”, which is an online platform used by many university classes to build and share live content. All Callysto learning modules use the Python programming language, which is also the programming language used by most data scientists.</em></p>
