Multilingual Notebook

Although data science, artificial intelligence, or Web 2.0. are the new buzzword, Jupyter Notebooks are revolutionizing in the sense that it is an open-source web project, a piece of software that allows data scientists to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. Originally called IPython Notebook, it’s built to write and share code and text, within the domain of a web page. Even though Jupyter has its roots in Python (it evolved from IPython Notebooks), it is now multi-lingual. In fact the name itself comes from 3 languages: Ju(lia)+Py(thon)+(e)R and  Jupyter kernels now extends to 80 more languages. They are very convenient in the senses that have become a standard for data analysis and scientific research, allows us to publish our narratives in many formats, from live online notebooks to slide decks; and it simplifies the problem of distributing employed software to coworkers and associates.

It advocates a data force, based on the successful nudge unit, to access data from different departments and identify where savings could be made. New data science skills will be needed across government, but it is more important is ensuring that public services leaders are confident in combining big data with sound judgment.

Closely linked to government's drive to make better use of big data, is its drive to make data open. Open data, particularly that in the public sector, is often big data – for example, the census, information about healthcare or the weather – and making large government datasets open to the public drives innovation from within government and outside.
