🕒 14:05–14:35
🏷️ Labels: Jupyter, Vs Code, Python, Git, Nbconvert
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal:

The session aimed to explore the use of Jupyter magic commands within VS Code to enhance control over cell execution and script conversion, as well as manage Git repositories using Python scripts.

Key Activities:

• Explored the use of Jupyter magic commands such as script true, and # %run to control cell execution in VS Code.
• Investigated methods to prevent cell execution in interactive Jupyter notebooks while allowing script conversion with nbconvert.
• Developed Python scripts to manage directories and clone Git repositories using os and gitpython modules.
• Demonstrated checking and installing the gitpython module to automate repository cloning.

Achievements:

• Gained insights into controlling Jupyter notebook cell execution within VS Code.
• Successfully created Python scripts for directory management and Git repository cloning.
• Enhanced understanding of automating Git operations with Python.

Pending Tasks:

• Further exploration of advanced Jupyter magic commands for more complex execution control scenarios.
• Optimization of Python scripts for broader Git operations and directory management.
