During March 2025, delivered end-to-end PHY386 course materials and data science workflows with a focus on reproducibility and business value. Implemented Homework 3 sensor data analysis pipeline (data acquisition, pandas preprocessing, scipy model fitting, visualization, and error propagation) and added data assets. Released CurveFitting lecture resources and notebook with a curve_fit demonstration and documentation fixes. Shipped HW4 materials (Python types/quantum states notebook, Pandas boolean indexing notebook) with robust dependency management for qutip and strawberryfields, including version pinning and environment guidance. Minor quality improvements (typos fixed, numpy version pinned) to ensure compatibility. These deliverables improve student onboarding, enable repeatable analyses, and strengthen technical readiness for advanced coursework.
