Jupyter has support for over 40 different programming languages and Python is one of them. Python is a requirement (Python 3.3 or greater, or Python 2.7) for installing the Jupyter Notebook itself.
Install Python and Jupyter using the Anaconda Distribution, which includes Python, the Jupyter Notebook, and other commonly used packages for scientific computing and data science. You can download Anaconda’s latest Python3 version from here.
Now, install the downloaded version of Anaconda.
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip python3 -m pip install jupyter
jupyter notebook
This will print some information about the notebook server in your terminal, including the URL of the web application (by default, http://localhost:8888) and then open your default web browser to this URL.
When the notebook opens in your browser, you will see the Notebook Dashboard, which will show a list of the notebooks, files, and subdirectories in the directory where the notebook server was started. Most of the time, you will wish to start a notebook server in the highest level directory containing notebooks. Often this will be your home directory.
Now on the dashboard, you can see a new button at the top right corner. Click it to open a drop-down list and then if you’ll click on Python3, it will open a new notebook.
jupyter notebook notebook_name.ipynb
jupyter notebook --port 9999
jupyter notebook --no-browser
jupyter notebook --help
Step #1: After successfully installing Jupyter write ‘jupyter notebook’ in the terminal/command prompt. This will open a new notebook server on your web browser.
Step #2: On the top left corner, click on the new button and select python3. This will open a new notebook tab in your browser where you can start to write your first code.
Step #3: Press Enter or click on the first cell in your notebook to go into the edit mode.
Step #4: Now you are free to write any code.
Step #5: You can run your code by pressing Shift + Enter
or the run button provided at the top. An example code is given below:
Esc - Change mode to command mode Enter - Change mode to edit mode
m - Change to markdown y - Change to code
Shift + Enter - Execute and go to next cell Ctrl + Enter - Execute and be in the same cell
a - Create cell in above to the cell b - Create cell in below to the cell
x - Cut the cell that can be paste anywhere any number of times c - Copy the cell that can be paste anywhere and any number of times v - Paste the cell
