Code Cell in Jupyter

Open bsstertius opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I cannot write to the code cell whilst working through the Jupyter Exercise book. What am I doing wrong ? Thanks in anticipation

I never heard that error reported for these notebooks. Do you mean you can’t edit any code cell, it doesn’t even allow you to type in the cell?

Thats right. The tutorial says that clicking to the left of the cell allows editing within the cell - and the border changes colour (?). None of this happens in the note book I have on screen.

I wonder if I somehow have a copy of the notebook rather than one intended for student use.

Sorry for the delay replying. Jupyter has two modes: edit (green cell border) and command (blue border). Clicking on the left selects the cell and switches to command mode. Clicking in the cell or pressing ENTER switches to edit mode. Pressing on ESC also switches to command mode.

All notebooks are for student use, there’s no separate read-only copy. HTH.

Thanks for getting back to me. I can report that today the cells in Jupiter notebooks are behaving as expected. Frustratingly, I don't know that I did anything different - but at least I can now be confident that the installation is OK.

Best wishes
