Create and run a Python notebook

[!INCLUDEtsql-appliesto-ssver15-xxxx-xxxx-xxx]

This tutorial demonstrates how to create and run a notebook in Azure Data Studio using the Python kernel.

Prerequisites

New notebook

The following steps show how to create a notebook file in Azure Data Studio:

  1. In Azure Data Studio, connect to the Python kernel.

  2. Select New Notebook in the File menu.

  3. Wait for the Kernel and the target context (Attach to) to be populated. Confirm that the Kernel is set to Python 3.

Run a notebook cell

You can create cells containing code or text. You can run a code cell in place and the results are shown in the notebook after the cell finished running.

Code

Add a new code cell by selecting the +Code command in the toolbar.

This example does simple math.

a = 1
b = 2
c = a/b
print(c)

Run the cell by clicking the play button to the left of the cell. The results appear below.

Text

Add a new text cell by selecting the +Text command in the toolbar.

The cell changes to edit mode and you can now type markdown and see the preview at the same time.

Selecting outside the text cell shows just the markdown text.
