JupyterLab or Jupyter Notebook: The 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: data cleaning and transformation, numerical simulation, statistical modeling, data visualization, machine learning, and much more

Installation, on all of Windows, macOS, and Linux, one way is (PLEASE! this is NOT the one method, you can follow your own choice):

  • Install Anaconda (it installs all packages you need and all other tools mentioned below).
  • For writing and executing code, use notebooks in JupyterLab for exploratory and interactive computing, and Spyder or Visual Studio Code for writing scripts and packages.
  • Use Anaconda Navigator to manage your packages and start JupyterLab, Spyder, or Visual Studio Code.
  • Note that once, the anaconda is installed, and Jupter notebook is open, you can import and use:
