To install Jupyter Notebook on Ubuntu (Linux)

To install Jupyter Notebook on Ubuntu 24, follow these steps:

1. Update the system:

   sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
   

2. Install Python and pip (Ubuntu 24 typically comes with Python pre-installed):

   sudo apt install python3 python3-pip -y
   

3. Install Jupyter Notebook:

   pip3 install jupyter
   

4. Verify the installation:

   jupyter notebook --version
   

5. Launch Jupyter Notebook:

   jupyter notebook
   

   This will start the Jupyter server and open a browser window. If it doesn’t, navigate to http://localhost:8888 in your browser.

Optional: Install in a virtual environment (recommended to avoid package conflicts):

1. Install virtualenv:

   sudo apt install python3-venv -y
   

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv jupyter_env
   source jupyter_env/bin/activate
   

3. Install Jupyter Notebook inside the virtual environment:

   pip install jupyter
   

4. Run Jupyter Notebook as above.

Notes:

• Ensure you have an active internet connection.
• If you encounter permission issues with pip, use pip3 install --user jupyter.
• To stop the Jupyter server, press Ctrl+C in the terminal.
