The Jupyter project provides open source, interactive data science and scientific computing across over 40 programming languages. It used to be called IPython (just changed its name recently to reflect the fact that it now supports other programming languages other than python)

The Jupyter notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. Uses include: data cleaning and transformation, numerical simulation, statistical modeling, machine learning and much more.

We will use the Jupyter notebook for our Python Problem Sets.
