Intro to Jupyter!

Jupyter Notebook offers an interactive web interface to many languages, including IPython and R.

It combines rendering of markdown-ed text, latex-ed equations, code snippets (e.g., Python, R), and graphics as well as other outputs generated by those code snippets

#### Text formatting - markdown
#### Equations - $\LaTeX$

We like this one: $\frac{dN}{dt} = rN \left( 1-\frac{N}{K}\right)$

#### Code - Python/R/etc



In [1]:

    
a = "this is python!"; print a









    



this is python!



In [1]:

    
a <- "this is R!"; cat(a)









    



this is R!

#### Graphics - Python/R/etc



In [1]:

    
require(ggplot2)

plot(1,1)
