Understanding word vectors: A tutorial for "Reading and Writing Electronic Text," a class I teach at ITP. (Python 2.7)

In this tutorial, I'm going to show you how word vectors work. This tutorial assumes a good amount of Python knowledge, but even if you're not a Python expert, you should be able to follow along and make small changes to the examples without too much trouble.

This is a "Jupyter Notebook," which consists of text and "cells" of code. After you've loaded the notebook, you can execute the code in a cell by highlighting it and hitting Ctrl+Enter. In general, you need to execute the cells from top to bottom, but you can usually run a cell more than once without messing anything up. Experiment!...
