Using Jupyter and Colab

Jupyter

WORK IN PROGRESS

There are several ways to access Jupyter, all slightly different. If you use notebook, or if you use Visual Studio Code you could use the Microsoft Jupyter extension.

At the top of the file you need to use one of the following magic commands

%matplotlib inline

%matplotlib notebook

%matplotlib widgets

To see all the options use

%matplotlib --list

If you are using Matplotlib from within a script, the function plt.show() is your friend. plt.show() starts an event loop, looks for all currently active figure objects, and opens one or more interactive windows that display your figure or figures.

plt.ion() and plt.ioff()
