You can see, currently the list is empty. We can create a notebook by clicking on "New" button at the right corner of the screen. Apart from python code , you can also create the folder,file and python interpreter terminal. Please note that all this will be created on your current directory from where you have launched the notebook.

Let's click on , new and then click on python notebook. It will open the notebook on new tab. By default it is untitled, but you can change it by clicking on Untitled as shown in the figure.

The speciality of notebook is that ,it will auto save the content which means you do not have to write the code in a file and save it again to test it. You can write,change and test it there itself. Isn't that cool thing.

Now all the setup has been done. We can now actually concentrate on python coding. See you in the next tutorial till then "Happy Coding".
