Step 1: Visit https://www.anaconda.com/download/

- After the download is complete, run the installer. This usually takes a long time.
- After the installer is finished running. Go to the start button and search for "anaconda prompt".
- Start the anaconda prompt by clicking on it
- At the prompt, type
jupyter notebook
- Wait for a while, in your browser a Jupyter notebook instance should open up.
- You can now start working with Python!!!
For more details on how to work with jupyter notebooks, you can follow the video,T2 Introduction to Python: Overview and Installation/Anaconda and Jupyter Notebook, in the Module "Introduction to Machine Learning and Python for Machine Learning"
