Downloading JupyterNotebooks: JupyterNotebooks seem not to be properly compiled within GitHub enviroment, so as a result they do not display properly. I recommend downloading the Notebooks.
To download the JupyterNotebooks follow the steps below:

• Click on the tab Raw
• Right click on the page and select Save As
• Change Save as type to : All Files
• Save the file to your designated folder and manually add the extension .ipynb
