For this class you will need to be able to;

1. Run Colab with Python(you may also use R)
2. Write reports (all assignments are reports)

More information about the software available to you is at Software for the Class

This assignment is simply to demonstrate your readiness for the upcoming assignments. You will submit a report that will contain 2 screen captures. 

1. Screen Capture 1 - Using Colab, you will write a simple Hello World and run it. Here is what you must do;
   
   print("Your name here")
   a = [6,9,4,6,5,8,6,7]
   (write code to calculate the average of the values in the array and print the average)
   
   The program should show the code and the output of the code. It should also show a text block ABOVE the code with your name in it.  
   
   
2. This is a report (name, date, title, introduction, problem statement, results, conclusion), you are simply demonstrating your readiness to write reports for ALL your assignments.
   
   
3. I do not accept submissions to assignments that are not written in report format. 
   
   
4. The report can be in Word or pdf format.  This must be submitted as a report in the correct report format.
