Once we’re done, all you have to do is click a desktop shortcut. That will take a little more work, but you only have to do it once. The alternative is to run Jupyter in your Z:\ drive. Still, if you’re willing to copy files around as needed, you can just be happy with the current setup. Also, I think the C:\ drives aren’t shared between PIC computers (so if you move to a different physical computer, your C:\ files won’t follow you) whereas the Z:\ drive is shared. Just putting them on your desktop won’t work, since that Z:\Desktop, not C:\Users/\Desktop (they’re different!). You’ll have to put notebook files into e.g. You can just use Jupyter via the launchers above. It should show up in the search results: Launching Jupyter from Windows Making due with the C:\ drive Just go to the Windows launcher (hint: hit the Windows key) and type “Jupyter”. Contents of my user folder in C:\īefore we address the C:\ versus Z:\ issue, note a shortcut. The desktop and default Downloads folder are actually Z:\Desktop and Z:\Downloads, so we can’t access those. The annoying thing is, this is my C:\Users\akrieger\ folder on my PIC machine (see below). Yours should look similar to mine: Jupyter, showing my user folder under the C:\ drive Jupyter starts by showing you a file browser. For now, select “Jupyter notebook”… Launching Jupyter from AnacondaĪ browser should open automatically. Some of the other tools are useful for data analysis. You can also try Jupyter Lab (I think it’s a newer version I’m not familiar with it yet). Start by opening Anaconda… Launching Anaconda from my desktopĪnaconda shows multiple tools. You connect to it with a browser (the PIC machines use Internet Explorer by default), and it shows you a webapp. Jupyter runs as a web server on your computer. This is a very useful format for sharing code, since you can download someone else’s notebook, read the code, and run it, all from Jupyter. At your command, the code is executed and its output added to the notebook. The notebook interface lets you write code (or formatted text) into cells. Jupyter is a notebook tool, providing a UI to Python that’s similar to Mathematica. Recall that Anaconda is a Python distribution: it installs and manages Python and several other tools and libraries. The PIC machines have two ways (at least) to launch Jupyter built-in: via Anaconda, and directly. Jupyter shortcut for PIC machines Jupyter shortcut for PIC machines
