This flow shows how you install, launch, write, run, and save work in Jupyter Notebook step-by-step.

Execution Sample

Data Analysis Python

import numpy as np
x = np.array([1, 2, 3])
print(x)

This code creates a small array and prints it in a notebook cell.

Execution Table

Step	Action	Code Executed	Output	Notes
1	Import numpy library	import numpy as np		Numpy is ready to use
2	Create array x	x = np.array([1, 2, 3])		Array x stores [1, 2, 3]
3	Print array x	print(x)	[1 2 3]	Output shown below the cell
4	Save notebook	Save command		Notebook file saved on disk
5	Shutdown server	Shutdown command		Stops notebook server safely

💡 Execution stops after all cells run and server is shut down

Variable Tracker

Variable	Start	After Step 2	After Step 3	Final
np	Not defined	Numpy module	Numpy module	Numpy module
x	Not defined	[1 2 3]	[1 2 3]	[1 2 3]

Key Moments - 3 Insights

Why do I see output below the cell after running print(x)?

When you run a cell with print(), Jupyter shows the output right below that cell as shown in execution_table step 3.

What happens if I close the browser but don’t shut down the server?

The notebook server keeps running in the background, so your code and variables stay active until you shut it down (see step 5).

How do I save my work so I don’t lose it?

Use the save command (step 4) or the disk icon in the interface to save your notebook file on disk.

Visual Quiz - 3 Questions

Look at the execution table, what is the output after running print(x)?

A [1 2 3]

B x = [1, 2, 3]

C Error

D No output

💡 Hint

Check the Output column in row 3 of the execution_table

At which step is the numpy library imported and ready to use?

A Step 3

B Step 2

C Step 1

D Step 4

💡 Hint

Look at the Action and Code Executed columns in the execution_table

If you forget to shut down the server, what happens according to the key moments?

A The notebook file is deleted

B The server keeps running in the background

C The output disappears

D The code stops running immediately

💡 Hint

Refer to the second key moment about closing the browser without shutting down

Concept Snapshot

Jupyter Notebook lets you write and run code in cells.
Install it with pip, then launch with 'jupyter notebook'.
Write code or text in cells, run cells to see output below.
Save your work often and shut down the server when done.
Outputs appear immediately after running each cell.

Full Transcript

Jupyter Notebook is a tool to write and run code interactively. First, you install it using pip. Then you launch the notebook server, which opens a browser interface. You create or open notebooks, which have cells for code or text. When you run a code cell, the output appears right below it. You can save your notebook anytime to keep your work. When finished, you shut down the server to stop running code and free resources. This step-by-step process helps beginners see how code runs and outputs appear in real time.
