I have installed Git Bash, python 3.6 and Anaconda for the course which requires me to use Unix commands within Jupyter, such as !ls, !cat, !head etc. However, for each of these commands I get (e.g.):
'ls' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I am using Windows 10. What can I do to be able to proceed with the course? Thanks!
To run any Unix command on the Jupyter notebook, you need to start the command with an ! sign, for example, to list all the files in your current working directory, you need to type ! ls command in your cell. Use command %env filename to store the path of the file in the variable filename for further exploration task.
So in this article, we discussed what causes the '“jupyter is not recognised as an internal or external command” error and we found `two important solutions to get around this issue one of them is by setting the environment variable and another solution was by installing the 'jypter' of course if it was not installed ...
Enter command mode by pressing Esc or using the mouse to click outside a cell's editor area.
Try disabling any browser extensions and/or any Jupyter extensions you have installed. Some internet security software can interfere with Jupyter. If you have security software, try turning it off temporarily, and look in the settings for a more long-term solution.
Please don't use !ls as mentioned in the course. Use %ls in the jupyter notebook and it works fine. Hope it helps.
