Hi,
Would like to know if I could do Python programming on a laptop without downloading python software by using browser-based online IDEs (Integrated Development Environments) like Google Colab, Replit, PythonAnywhere, and online compilers like Online-Python.com.
If yes, which platform would you recommend for the purpose of doing the quantra courses and also for Algo trading

Hi,
Quantra courses contain Jupyter notebooks, which can be executed within the browser itself.
You could run the code in Google Colab, but there are certain things you have to be aware of. You will have to make sure that the Python libraries are installed and imported in the instance. Also, since you will be using Google Colab, the time taken to run the notebook can vary, depending on allocation of the resources. For machine learning course-related notebooks, it is recommended to run them on the local system, as it requires high computation.
Hope this helps.
