 Examples and basic usage
 =========================

+The basic usage of the windpowerlib is shown in the `modelchain_example <http://windpowerlib.readthedocs.io/en/stable/basic_example_notebook.html>`_. The presented example is available as jupyter notebook and python script. You can download them along with example weather data:
 
- * `Basic example (Python script) <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wind-python/windpowerlib/master/example/basic_example.py>`_

  * `Example data file <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wind-python/windpowerlib/master/example/weather.csv>`_
 
 
 To run the examples you first have to install the windpowerlib. To run the notebook you also need to install notebook using pip3. To launch jupyter notebook type ``jupyter notebook`` in terminal.
 This will open a browser window. Navigate to the directory containing the notebook to open it. See the jupyter notebook quick start guide for more information on `how to install <http://jupyter-notebook-beginner-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`_ and
 `how to run <http://jupyter-notebook-beginner-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/execute.html>`_ jupyter notebooks.
 
-The usage of further functions are shown in a second example. As the basic usage example it is available as jupyter notebook and as python script. The weather data in this example is the same as in the example above.
+Further functionalities, like the modelling of wind farms and wind turbine clusters, are shown in a second example. As the ModelChain example it is available as jupyter notebook and as python script. The weather data in this example is the same as in the example above.
