If you wish to test the modules presented in this book you will need the following:

Windows and Mac users can download packages from http://download.moodle.org/ that contain both of these ingredients combined. Alternately, you can download Moodle separately from the preceding link and add it to a web server such as XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html).
