If your Python distribution did not come with Idle (type “idle” at a command line to see if it’s defined), there’s a package (idle) that you can install with apt. You’ll also need Idle or Emacs (and it won’t hurt to have both). For other distributions, you can either compile from source or find the appropriate package for your distribution. For recent Debian-based distros, there is a package (python-numpy) that you can install with apt. Again, installation will be dependent on your distribution. You will also need to install numpy, a Python package, for some of the assignments. On other distributions, you should be able to find an appropriate package to install as well. For recent Debian-based distros, there is a package (python-tk) that you can install with apt. Installation will be dependent on your distribution. You should also install tkinter, a Python package that is necessary for running soar. You can use either your distribution’s package manager (apt, synaptic, yum, etc.) to download and install the python package (make sure it’s version 2.6.6), or you can compile Python from source. Make sure that your machine is running Python 2.6.6. We expect the 6.01 software to work on other distributions, but other distributions have not been tested. The laptops in the lab use Athena software that is built on Ubuntu version 10.4. OCW does not provide access to this environment. This course makes use of Athena, MIT’s UNIX-based computing environment. Software and Tools Installing the 6.01 Software on GNU/Linux
