+===== Example: how to create your own python environment module  =====
-First enable the module package to search also private module directories
+Please read [[easybuild_environment|here]].
-<code bash>
-module load use.own

-the line above will create a $HOME/privatemodules if it does not exist and its path will be searched for the presence of environment modules files.
-Let us  now install some packages to an arbitrary location and upgrade (__only in $PYTHONUSERBASE__) an already system-wide installed package
-<code bash>
-export PYTHONUSERBASE=/somewhere/I/can/write/to
-pip install --user SomePackage
-pip install -I --user SomePackageThatWASInstalledSystemwide
-</code>
-Create a file, say `$HOME/privatemodules/super-module' with the following contents
-<code bash>
-#%Module 1.0
-#
-#
-#
-prepend-path  PATH          /somewhere/I/can/write/to/bin # if executables were installed
-prepend-path  PYTHONPATH    /somewhere/I/can/write/to/lib/python2.7/site-packages
-</code>
-and type
-<code bash>
-module load super-module
-</code>
-and you are ready to use your newly created python environment. Note that is similar procedure can be repeated using python3.
 ===== Example: numpy with openBLAS =====
 In this example we create a python2 virtual environment in which we will install the latest version of numpy that will use the openBLAS library.

 ====== Anaconda/Miniconda ======
 Another way of using a private python install (separate versions etc), is to install and use [[conda|Anaconda/Miniconda]]. Since these environments can encompass much more than just python, they deserve their own page (especially since they come with their own share of pitfalls).
+====== Jupyter Notebooks ======
+Depending on your operating system (Fedora or RedHat) you might get a different python kernel version as the standard kernel. If you get ''python2'' as the default kernel and only option, but wish the use the ''python3'' kernel you need to add this kernel to you local environment. This can be done by executing:
+    python3 -m ipykernel install –user
+Once this command has run successfully, it will have installed python3 as a jupyter kernel.
+After starting ''jupyter notebook'' you can select ''python3'' as kernel.
