Overview of this book

Jupyter Notebook is a web-based environment that enables interactive computing in notebook documents. It allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations, and explanatory text. The Jupyter Notebook system is extensively used in domains such as data cleaning and transformation, numerical simulation, statistical modeling, machine learning, and much more. This book starts with a detailed overview of the Jupyter Notebook system and its installation in different environments. Next we’ll help you will learn to integrate Jupyter system with different programming languages such as R, Python, JavaScript, and Julia and explore the various versions and packages that are compatible with the Notebook system. Moving ahead, you master interactive widgets, namespaces, and working with Jupyter in a multiuser mode. Towards the end, you will use Jupyter with a big data set and will apply all the functionalities learned throughout the book.

Preface

Scala array operations


Scala does not have pandas, but we can emulate some of that logic with our own coding. We will use the same Titanic dataset used in Chapter 2 , Jupyter Python Scripting, from http://www.kaggle.com/c/titanic-gettingStarted/download/train.csv, which we have downloaded in our local space.

We can then use similar coding as was used in Chapter 2 , Jupyter Python Scripting, on pandas:

import scala.io.Source;
val filename = "train.csv"
//PassengerId,Survived,Pclass,Name,Sex,Age,SibSp,
      Parch,Ticket,Fare,Cabin,Embarked
//1,0,3,"Braund, Mr. Owen Harris",male,22,1,0,A/5 21171,7.25,,S
var males = 0
var females = 0
var males_survived = 0
var females_survived = 0
for (line <- Source.fromFile(filename).getLines) {
    var cols = line.split(",").map(_.trim);
    var sex = cols(5);
    if (sex == "male") { 
        males = males + 1;
        if (cols(1).toInt == 1) {
            males_survived = males_survived + 1;
        }
    }
    if (sex == "female") { 
        females...
