There’s an old expression “if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it” – and while that expression probably isn’t universally true (as pointed out in this interesting article), I think having a way to quantify your stress could be useful. I recently read an interesting article about the Holmes-Rahe Life […]

A colleague approached me with this very important business problem: Every Friday at SAS HQ, SAS cafe staff provides a breakfast goodie in our breakrooms. Often the supplied goodie is delicious, but sometimes it’s more…well…healthy. I want to know whether I should eat my breakfast before I leave home on […]

As of writing, Deep Learning package Theano can’t be installed under Python 3.5, which causes some problems with my project. ruslanagit provided a viable solution that works for me under Windows 10.For convenience, I copied his solution below:Well, the…
Jupyter notebook does not support Table Of Contents (ToC) out of box, unlike R Markdown. There are nbextensions that ppl made to support this. It is easy to add this capability, following these steps to add Table of Contents to your notebook:
1. Find your Jupyter Notebook data directory by using this command in your DOS console:
a. Jupyter –data-dir
2. Copy the following two files into your Jupyter data directory:
https://rawgithub.com/minrk/ipython_extensions/master/nbextensions/toc.js
https://rawgithub.com/minrk/ipython_extensions/master/nbextensions/toc.css
3. Run this command:
a. Jupyter nbextension enable toc –user
4. In your Jupyter Notebook, add this command to a MarkDown cell on top of your notebook:
a. < div id=”toc” > < /div >
One caveat is that all headings will be listed in ToC, including your Title (if there is one). One easy work around is to write your title in Word, save a screenshot into an image, save the image file to the same folder as your notebook is, then use the following command in the top Markdown cell:
< div style=”float: left;” > < img src=”Title.png” height=”200″ width=”800″> < /div >
Where is solar and wind power generated in the US? Let’s visualize this data on a map… I recently saw the following map on the metricmaps.org website. It caught my attention because it looks like North Carolina has a lot of solar power plants, whereas our neighboring states have very few. […]

I ran across a map recently that seemed to show a lot of US states are primarily coal-powered. The map was a little difficult to read, so I decided to give it a SAS makeover … Before we get started, here’s a picture my friend David took of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power […]

A few months ago I shared the news about Jupyter notebook support for SAS. If you have SAS for Linux, you can install a free open-source project called sas-kernel and begin running SAS code within your Jupyter notebooks. In my post, I hinted that support for this might be coming […]
