<p>Callysto learning modules are based on “Jupyter notebooks” – an open-source platform that lets you create and share content (including functions, text, and media) using code. You don’t need to know how to code in order to use a notebook – this section explains what the main parts of a Callysto learning module are, so you understand what you’re looking at.</p>

{{< spoiler text="3. Explain what Callysto is" >}}
<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>
