Using different versions of Python in Jupyter


How to use a different version of python in Jupyter

I wanted to see the new features of python 3.6, but the version that my Jupyter uses by default is the 3.5.1 (Anaconda 4.0.0). So I searched and I realized that I should use the following code to run the python 3.6 interpreter.



So
  • You have to see where is the version you want
  • write what you see below
I have checked the version importing the sys module and printing the sys.version.
Then I checked the Formatted string literals that is one of the new features in python 3.6. There is a thing: you have to write this line of text in each cell to use the 3.6 version, otherwise you will get back to the 3.5 version.
I have as default version the 3.6, but I still am not aware about changing the version in Jupyter. Anaconda stil has not his 3.6 version of python.


%%script C:\Users\Utente\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\python.exe
import sys
print(sys.version)
print()

name = "Giovanni"
print(f'My name is {name}')
3.6.0 (v3.6.0:41df79263a11, Dec 23 2016, 07:18:10) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)]

My name is Giovanni
import sys
print(sys.version)
3.5.1 |Anaconda 4.0.0 (64-bit)| (default, Feb 16 2016, 09:49:46) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)]

Image in Jupyter and PIL step by step

Hi, """ Hi, we will see a step by step tutorial about PIL and IPython.core.display modules to create images from other images and diplaying them in Jupyter notebook """ # What we will do # Create a card # 1. Take a pic of a heart # 2. Create an image blanck the size of a card 90*130 # 3. Paste the heart in the middle # 4. show the card """ As first step wi will simply display an image on the notebook. I will show two way to display the image with 'display' from IPhyton a. Using the open method of PIL.Image (named Img) b. Using the Image method from the IPython.core.display module """ # 1. Take the pic of a heart from IPython.core.display import Image , display from PIL import Image as Img heart = 'img/heart.png' display ( Image ( heart )) display ( Img . open ( heart )) # 2. Create an image blanck the size of a card 90*130 # 3. Paste the heart in the middle #...

Let's draw a circle with PIL in Python

Let's continue making our coding around PIL. Let's start with some basic drawing: a circle from PIL import Image , ImageDraw img = Image . new ( "RGB" ,( 60 , 60 ), 'white' ) dr = ImageDraw . Draw ( img ) dr . ellipse (( 0 , 0 , 60 , 60 ), 'yellow' ) img . show () this is the image produced *If you use jupyter notebook, just write img at the end to see the output.
