There is a CentOS Linux server set up as previously described to have the Python 3.6 installation and modules you need for CS 5045:
cs5045.cs.vt.edu
You will be assigned an account on this server for you to use to develop and test your Python 3 programs. This is especially useful if you do not install Python 3.6 on your own computer. You can log into the server with this command:
ssh cs5045.cs.vt.edu
You will need to be on the campus network or use the Virginia Tech VPN to use ssh.
