Jupyter Notebook Export Tutorial

For many assignments in this class, you will need to export a Jupyter Notebook for submission to Gradescope. Here is a tutorial on how to do so:

Step 1: Download the notebook file

Go to File > Download > Download .ipynb and download the notebook file. It is important that you complete this step before step 2 so that apt-get and pip do not clog up your submission.

Step 2: Install tools on Colab

Create and run the following cell:

!apt-get install texlive texlive-xetex texlive-latex-extra pandoc
!pip install pypandoc

Step 3: Upload the notebook back to the directory filesystem

Re-upload the notebook to Google Colab's filesystem, either by drag and dropping on the files tab or clicking the upload button. Your files tab should now look something like this:

Step 4: Create and download the pdf

Create and run the following cell, replacing discussion1_bayes_rule with the name of the notebook you uploaded:

!jupyter nbconvert --to pdf discussion1_bayes_rule.ipynb
from google.colab import files
files.download('discussion1_bayes_rule.pdf')

The pdf should automatically be downloaded to your computer. All done!
