Installing pyspark with Jupyter

Installing pyspark with Jupyter Check List Python is a wonderful programming language for data analytics. Normally, I prefer to write python codes inside   Jupyter Notebook  (previous known as  IPython ), because it allows us to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text.  Apache Spark  is a fast and general engine for large-scale data processing.  PySpark  is the Python API for Spark. So it’s a good start point to write PySpark codes inside jupyter if you are interested in data science: IPYTHON_OPTS="notebook" pyspark --master spark://localhost:7077 --executor-memory 7g Install Jupyter If you are a pythoner, I highly recommend installing  Anaconda .
