Part III. Appendixes

The appendixes of this book present some crosscutting material that undergirds much of the content that precedes it:

  • Appendix A presents a brief overview of the technology that powers the virtual machine experience that accompanies this book, as well as a brief discussion on the scope and purpose of the virtual machine.

  • Appendix B provides a short discussion of Open Authorization (OAuth), the industry protocol that undergirds accessing social data from just about any notable social website with an API.

  • Appendix C is a very short primer on some common Python idioms that you’ll encounter in the source code for this book; it highlights some subtleties about the Jupyter Notebook that you may benefit from knowing about.
