Installing Packt Data Science Box

We have also created a separate virtual machine for some of the exercises in the book.

Download the Packt Data Science Virtual Machine Vagrant files from https://gitlab.com/packt_public/vm.

To load the VM, first download Vagrant from https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html.

Download page for Vagrant

Once you have completed the download, install Vagrant by running the downloaded Vagrant installation file. Once the installation completes, you'll get a prompt to restart the machine. Restart your system and then proceed to the next step of loading the vagrant file:
