How to interact#

Directly in the browser#

Pyodide makes it possible to run Python code directly in your browser without installing anything locally. This means you can interact with all the code examples and exercises on this page immediately. You do this by clicking the rocket icon Arrow in the toolbar above any code cell. This will activate the interactive mode, allowing you to:

  • Edit code: Modify the examples to experiment with different parameters

  • Run code: Execute Python commands and see results instantly

  • Install packages: Use await micropip.install("package-name") to add Python libraries

  • Interactive learning: Try variations of the examples to deepen your understanding

The interactive environment runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly, so your work stays local and private. However, note that refreshing the page will reset the environment and clear any variables you’ve defined.

Download a Jupyter Notebook#

If you prefer to work locally or want to save your progress, you can download any page as a Jupyter Notebook by clicking the download button in the toolbar. This allows you to:

  • Work offline: Continue experimenting without an internet connection

  • Save progress: Your changes and results are permanently saved

  • Full Python environment: Access to all Python packages and features

  • Integration: Import into your preferred development environment (VS Code, PyCharm, etc.)

To use the downloaded notebook:

  1. Install Python and Jupyter on your computer

  2. Install required packages: pip install numpy matplotlib sympy dtumathtools

  3. Open the notebook file in Jupyter Lab or Jupyter Notebook

  4. Run and modify the code as needed
