What you need for this learning path

Developing in Julia can be done under any of the familiar computing operating systems: Linux, OS X, and Windows. To explore the language in depth, the reader may wish to acquire the latest versions and to build from source under Linux. However, to work with the language using a binary distribution on any of the three platforms, the installation is very straightforward and convenient. In addition, Julia now comes pre-packaged with the Juno IDE, which just requires expansion from a compressed (zipped) archive.
