A Jupyter Notebook is an open-source web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and narrative text. Uses include (but are not limited to):
- testing
- data cleaning and transformation
- numerical simulation
- statistical modeling
- data visualization
- machine learning ... and much more.
It even works with over 40 different programming languages!
How Do I Install It On My System?
You can run one of the following from your terminal (depending on your python version):
pip3 install jupyter
pip install jupyter
If you prefer to use Anaconda this is best for beginners. Especially since it already has Jupyter AND python installed!
- In your Anaconda window or terminal, go to whatever folder you want to start at with the top level folder.
- Run this command:
jupyter notebook
