| 14 | +## Jupyter notebooks and Figures |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +# ABOUT THE NOTEBOOKS |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | + Only three chapters in the book contain explicit code. Chapter 15 discusses |
| 20 | + the Scikit-Learn library, and Chapters 23 and 24 discuss the Keras library. All of |
| 21 | + the code in these chapters is in Python, and is provided in Jupyter notebooks. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + Most other chapters in the book contain at least some figures that were generated |
| 24 | + procedurally using Python. Those chapters also have associated notebooks which are |
| 25 | + available here. Those notebooks are not part of the book itself, but are offered |
| 26 | + as a kind of "behind the scenes" look at how the figures were made for those who |
| 27 | + want to dig into the process. These notebooks are only lightly documented. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + Because of their role as learning materials, all of the code in these notebooks |
| 30 | + was written to emphasize clarity over all other stylistic concerns. This means |
| 31 | + that much of it can be shortened, and probably made faster as well. Feel free |
| 32 | + to dig in, optimize, convert to other languages, or otherwise play with the code. |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + All the notebooks are released under the MIT license. Informally, you're free to |
| 35 | + do pretty much anything with the code, including using it in your own projects, |
| 36 | + or even including it in commercial projects, as long as you keep my copyright |
| 37 | + along with the code. While I strove for accuracy and correctness, there is no |
| 38 | + warranty that the code is bug-free or fit for any purpose. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | + Some notebooks work with images. The images I used in the book are included |
| 41 | + with the notebooks. See the section below on Figures for details on their |
| 42 | + licensing, and see the book for the URL where each image may be found. All images |
| 43 | + without an explicit citation in the book are by the author, and are released |
| 44 | + under the MIT license. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | + The code for Volumes 1 and 2 are each in their own GitHub repo: |

| 54 | +# ABOUT THE FIGURES |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | + The book is illustrated with roughly 1000 original figures. Most were drawn |
| 57 | + by the author in Adobe Illustrator. A few were drawn in Photoshop. All |
| 58 | + are available here in PNG format. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | + Most of these images are saved at high resolution (300 dpi or better), so |
| 61 | + they are appropriate for presentations and talks even when projected |
| 62 | + to large size. |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | + All of these figures are released under the MIT license, like the code. This |
| 65 | + means you're free to use them any way you like, as long as you keep the |
| 66 | + copyright associated with them somehow. Use them for your classes, |
| 67 | + reports, papers, presentations, whatever you like! |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + You're not required to attribute me or the book if you use these images, |
| 70 | + but I'd appreciate it if you would. |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | + Some figures include photographs. Many of these are by the author. All other |
| 73 | + photos are from Wikiart, Wikimedia, or Pixabay. The book provides a citation |
| 74 | + and URL to the source of each of these images. The first two sites state that |
| 75 | + their images are in the public domain. All images selected from Pixabay are |
| 76 | + labeled as released under the Creative Commons CC0 license, and explicitly |
| 77 | + state, "Free for commercial use. No attribution required." |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | + To help you better sort through and choose figures, thumbnails for all |
| 80 | + the figures are available. |
