+<li>You will now copy four values into twitterstream.py.  These values are your &quot;API Key&quot;, your &quot;API secret&quot;, your &quot;Access token&quot; and your &quot;Access token secret&quot;.  All four should now be visible on the API Keys page. (You may see &quot;API Key&quot; referred to as &quot;Consumer key&quot; in some places in the code or on the web; they are synonyms.) Open twitterstream.py and set the variables corresponding to the api key, api secret, access token, and access secret.  You will see code like the below: 
+
 <pre>
-$ python twitterstream.py
+api_key = "&lt;Enter api key&gt;"
+api_secret = "&lt;Enter api secret&gt;"
+access_token_key = "&lt;Enter your access token key here&gt;"
+access_token_secret = "&lt;Enter your access token secret here&gt;"
 </pre>
 </li>
 
-</ul>
+<li>Run the following and make sure you see data flowing and that no errors occur. 
+
+<pre>$ python twitterstream.py > output.txt</pre>
 
+This command pipes the output to a file.  Stop the program with Ctrl-C, but wait at least <strong>3 minutes</strong> for data to accumulate. Keep the file output.txt for the duration of the assignment; we will be reusing it in later problems.  Don’t use someone else’s file; we will check for uniqueness in other parts of the assignment.
