🛠️ Running Code in Jupyter Notebooks
Jupyter Notebooks let you write & run code interactively.
Here’s a quick guide to make your workflow smoother:
▶️ Kernel & Code Cells
- Each notebook is tied to a single kernel (e.g. IPython).
- Code cells are where you write and execute code.
⌨️ Useful Shortcuts
- Shift + Enter → run current cell, move to next
- Alt + Enter → run current cell, insert new one below
- Ctrl + Enter → run current cell, stay in place
🔄 Kernel Management
- Interrupt the kernel if code hangs.
- Restart kernel to reset memory & variables.
🖥️ Output Handling
- Results & errors appear directly under the cell.
- Long-running code outputs appear as they’re generated.
- Large outputs can be scrolled or collapsed for clarity.
💡 Pro Tip:
Always “Restart & Run All” before sharing or saving a notebook.
This ensures reproducibility and clean results.
