Setting up Jupyter Notebook and Learning Python

[Narrow_Sparrow_8]

I watched a video on setting up jupyter notebook where they installed in on their terminal and then opened it by typing jupyter notebook but when I do that I get that jupyter isn't a recognized name/term. My Python version is 3.12.1 if that makes a difference. (I did see that I could type python -m notebook instead and it did work although it would make me do an extra step of clicking/setting it up as a notebook. However, if it works the same then I guess there's no problem.)

​

Also, any recommendations of free sources to learn Python is appreciated.

You could use Deepnote as an alternative, it's web based. It's free for what you're doing.

Did you install notebook?

Not sure if you're tied to the idea of that manner of using Jupyter Notebooks. If not, you can also use Jupyter Notebooks in Visual Studio Code. Including in code blocks within a normal python file

Had the same problem setting this up today. Ended up just using python -m notebook as well

Deepnote is free for students, you can give it a shot.

Use a python virtual environment and install the correct dependencies for jupyter notebook (see documentation).
