Python: Introduction and Jupyter Notebooks

Let’s explore Jupyter Notebooks and their connection to Python:

1. What is Jupyter Notebook?
   • The Jupyter Notebook is an open-source web application that combines live code, equations, visualizations, and text.
   • You can create and share documents containing interactive code cells, narrative text, and rich media.
   • Jupyter supports multiple programming languages, including Python, Julia, and R.
   • It’s maintained by the Project Jupyter community¹.
2. Getting Started with Jupyter Notebook:
   • To install Jupyter Notebook, use pip install jupyter (if you’re using Python directly) or consider using Anaconda, which includes Jupyter along with scientific libraries.
   • Start the Jupyter Notebook server by running jupyter notebook in your terminal.
   • Create notebooks to write code, add explanations, and visualize data.
