Numbers: Operations, Types, and Variables

In the preface, we installed Anaconda, which comes along with Python 3.7 and the Jupyter Notebook. It's time to open a Jupyter Notebook and begin our Pythonic journey.

To begin with this book, you need to make sure that you have a Jupyter Notebook open. Here are the steps.

1. Locate and open your Anaconda Navigator.
2. Search for Jupyter Notebook in Anaconda Navigator and click on it.
3. A new window should open in the web browser of your choice.
