imports statements misleading

Open quist00 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Many scripts start out with

import skimage.io, or some other truncated list of imports that have already been imported

While doing so doesn't cause and error and the user won't experience any issues if they work through the lessons in sequence, I think having that there implies that it is either necessary or that you don't need any other imports when that is often not the case.

I think we should replace all such instances with a complete list of imports needed for that script.

We briefly discussed this during the February 2023 curriculum advisory committee (CAC) meeting. The CAC suggests to reach out to maintainers of other lessons that use Jupyter notebooks to see if there are existing conventions/standards elsewhere in the Carpentries ecosystem.
