I've got a working environment for running Keras on Google Colab, but cannot figure out how to load MNIST data so I can import it into my program. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

1What have you tried? Keras has built-in functions to load the MNIST dataset. – Dr. Snoopy Jan 13 '19 at 16:31

Keras has built-in common datasets and MNIST is one of them:
from keras.datasets import mnist
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = mnist.load_data()
So if you have Keras on Colab, you should also have MNIST ready to go.

Thanks, this is perfect! Pardon my ignorance, wasn't expecting it to be so convenient! – Alex V Jan 13 '19 at 16:36
