Understanding Calculator code is a great way to learn JavaScript.
- Calculator was obtained from Teacher in _post directory
- Calculator also requires assets directory also obtained from Teacher
- assets/css contains customized style for buttons
- assets/js contains vanta animations
- Code cell requires
%%html
at the top of cell to support css, html, script.
