Jupyter Notebook

To get started, you'll need to install some packages

pip install notebook ipywidgets

By default, when you launch a Jupyter notebook, it will be hosted at 127.0.0.1 on port 8888

• Launching a Jupyter notebook without opening a browser window:

  jupyter notebook --no-browser
  

Passwords

• Changing a notebook's password the proper way

  1. First, enter a Python shell

     python
     

  2. Run the passwd() function in the notebook library

     from notebook.auth import passwd
     passwd
     # Enter password:
     # Verify password:
     # => 'sha1:67c9e60bb8b6:9ffede0825894254b2e042ea597d771089e11aed'
     

  3. Edit your jupyter_notebook_config.py file

     # The password should be of the form 'type:salt:hash'
     c.NotebookApp.password = 'sha1:0827b2390e3d:b54ee3e38895aaccc182705ad174bfb3c6e86a10'
     

• Changing a notebook's password the lazy way

  1. Edit your jupyter_notebook_config.py file

  ```py
  from jupyter.auth import passwd
  c.NotebookApp.password = passwd('lol_nobody_will_see_this')
  ```
  

Plotly

• Installing plotly

  pip install plotly # lol go figure
  

• Render a bar graph figure

  import plotly.graph_objects.Figure
  figure = Figure(data=go.Bar(y=[2, 3, 1]))
  figure.show()
