How to get the data?

Competition Broad Institute Crunch #1

Can the data be downloaded and accessed locally, or is this challenge set up so that you have to work in the cloud?

Ok, now I found out. You have to click on the Quickstart field on this website (a field like this Forum here), then you get to a Google Colab notebook. There, the data is available, and when you convert it to a zip file, you can download it to your local machine (Maybe you will also need to create a model on the submission field, to get a token, I have not paid attention if that was necessary in order to convert the data to a zip and download it).

Hope this helps

Hello,

Here are a few things you could have done instead:

  • download the notebook locally and run the command
  • use the Submit via CLI bash command instead

Thanks! I was just a little lost in the beginning, because the first thing I usually look for is the data.
